In honor of Oktoberfest, I had to dust off some Wehrmacht today and thought I would start a topic re. K&C Kübelwagens. Share your images and scenes with these little VW vehicles. To get things started, here's one of mine:

My little German is pretty rusty, But I think he was saying that way to the Volkswagen recall !^&grin

Here are some photos of K&C's very first resin and metal Kubelwagon (1995) along with the First matt Panzer crew (1998 - the rarest K&C Matt set) on a diorama designed by Andy and custom built by Gordon back in 1999:

Thus the reason VW nixed the, "It's not your Opa's VW" campaign in recent years. {sm4}

Thanks for sharing Louis - a most excellent Kubel. I always enjoy seeing these older pieces that far pre-date my K&C collecting.

Hi Poppo,
One has to appreciate K&C's DAK Kubel. Nice diorama. I was so happy when I found one from a second hand seller.

I think I may have a few more:

Looking at vintage models, isn't it amazing how far this hobby has evolved over the last ten years?
 
Here is one we have already seen recently but, it is a Kubelwagon !
