Re: New and Old Beetle, WWII Style
I agree with said above, that old one looks awesome. I have never really seen the two together and I just realized that the new one are actually kind of ugly. No offense to you of course, both are great models.

Re: New and Old Beetle, WWII Style
Both are nice models
 as a Vw fan you know how to make me happy  Just one comment, I wouldn't have painted the beetle in German grey with US decals. Or you keep the paint but apply german decals (like the NewB) or you paint it Olive drab. Just my  Very nice models BTW
