This time I have a chance to tell you more about IBG Models 1/72 V3000S 3t Late Production (72150). New plastic copies slightly different version of the German truck. I reviewed the previous releases, so it will be interesting to see what is included here. Overall packaging is typical, so all parts are packed into resealable plastic bag. Let's open all of them and take a look at sprues. By the way, boxart looks nice and shows bike in the rear section, but it is not included here. :)
By the way, here you can read review with the previous version from the same brand.

Watch this review where I show all parts even closer.
First frame is dedicated to front cab panels as well as some interior bits. Doors are molded separately and can be opened for some build ideas.
Next two frames are dedicated to rear panels and one-piece chassis. Note that leaf springs are molded separately.
It is nice to see plastic wheels here. Such type of parts should be easier to paint and weather on your truck. Yes, engine is also included in the kit.
Bonnet should be glued out of several panels, so it will be important to track the fitment and alignment. I like that chassis parts come as one-piece, and you won't have to worry about how they combine together.
Another portion of rear panels comes with nice premolded details. Those should be nice for painting and weathering on your build.
Clear frame is packed separately. All parts look great, but keep in mind that there are no masks included in the set.
PE fret should come handy for fine features on the truck. Some parts are very tiny, so get some sharp tweezers.
Decals sheet is printed in Techmod, and printing quality looks great. There are all necessary symbols for two options, and one of them can be seen on the photo below.
Assembly manual is typical for this brand. You can check all pages in the video-review.
New tiny truck should be already available for purchase. In my opinion it is a great choice for diorama build which offers a lot of features out of the box. Yes, bike is not included, but it might give you a nice idea to replicate in small scale. There are some offerings in 1/72 from different brands, so you can combine them together and get nice diorama project. Overall it is on par with previous releases, so all fans of small scale will be pleased to work with this plastic.
