As some of you have seen, there was one of those shorty tank cars that went for some $$ on Ebay. I am sad the German company that made them went out of business. The tanks were made from Plastiscuct parts from what I understand, the rest is etched metal and a few other parts. Yes I know they could be made in Shapways but never in the quality as these. These would be an easy model for any of the 4 US Z scale companies that are out there. This has the "cute" factor and if it takes someone painting some like easter eggs, for me to get one with DOW or DUPONT, then so be it.
