I have recently purchased a few Zveda model kits. They have a nice line of 1/100 scale (15mm) models for their own WW2 game. The models cost about $5.50 and are made of a medium grade plastic. This is the first kit I have built; an Opelblitz truck.
These are pretty nice kits and they match well with 15mm figures. Assembly was easy but some the the parts are delicate. I will make sure I post some pictures of the painted model.
Looks good. They look pretty good quality for something so inexpensive. I bought some tanks recently (although not assembled yet) and was considering buying a load of these trucks to represent a supply convoy in my games.
