Does anyone know when this retired Battle of the Bulge Series vehicle (#BBG023) was issued or released? BBG023 - Steyr 1500 Funkkraftwagen (retired).jpg
 
I think it was a October/November release in 2009. Retired toward the end of 2011 based on what I was able to find here on Treefrog. It's a nice piece and it looks great in the grey winter paint. I own the DAK version and really like it.
 
I have the Winter version and think the weathering on the vehicle is one of K&C's best. They do show up on ebay and there have been recent sales at slightly below the $129 original price

Just bought it for $99 + shipping (unfortunately no original box). It is going to be a Xmas gift to my son for a BOB diorama that we built for BOB K&C collection. If anyone has a spare K&C vehicle box, I am willing to pay. {sm4}
 
Okay, since we're showing off our FunkKraftwagens; my Afrikakorps version - one of the few camo painted DAK vehicles:

Here below you can see the original one. I wish in the KC version were also the 2 signaling sticks on the sides of fender. They have not been done for fear of breakings I guess...And the driver' s cabin in reality is not so vertical, but a has a more oblique shape.

But CS made those sticks in its Steyr command car...
