Kotare's new-tooled 1/32 Bf 109E4 is coming soon and is still in development. Kotare has used notable "experten" to give input to the new kit's development. Not only in the model but also in the colour schemes & other parts of the package. It now falls to a lucky twenty modellers to give their own input.

THE ‘KOTARE FIRST 500’ – the T2 test shot build draw 
Previously, in the 20 pc Hurricane kit pre-order winner draw, the customers had fun with the second batch of test shot sample parts from that upcoming kit set. Kotare appreciated their efforts to build the kit quickly & send in corrections & suggestions. The same process will see a random draw to find 20 pre-order customers from the Bf 109E Kotare First 500 who will be given the same opportunity.
