IBG Models continues to expand its highly regarded lineup of historically focused armor, soft-skin vehicles, and figures with a number of recent releases now entering the June 2026 distribution cycle. Known for its strong emphasis on Polish and European WWII subjects, IBG Models remains a key brand for hobbyists looking for accurate, well-engineered kits that cover underrepresented historical topics.

The June 2026 cycle highlights several important releases, including new Polish cavalry figure sets and a detailed early-war German light tank, reinforcing IBG’s commitment to early WWII subjects and historically significant units.


June 2026 Release Cycle (Current Availability)

IBG Models’ latest wave focuses on infantry, equipment, and early-war armor, providing modelers with both standalone kits and components that can be combined into complete diorama scenes.

Featured Recent Releases:

  • Kit No. 35050 – Polish Cavalrymen (Uhlans) 1939 (1/35 scale)
    A detailed figure set depicting Polish cavalry troops at the outbreak of WWII. The kit features multiple poses, realistic uniforms, and historically accurate equipment, making it ideal for early September 1939 diorama settings.

  • Kit No. 35051 – Polish Cavalrymen (Uhlans) 1939 – Weapons Set (1/35 scale)
    Designed as a complementary release, this set focuses on weapons and equipment used by Polish Uhlans, including rifles, sabers, and additional gear. It enhances the base figure set and allows for greater customization and accuracy in displays.

  • Kit No. 35075 – German Light Tank Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. a1 (1/35 scale)
    A finely detailed early-war German light tank, representing one of the key armored vehicles used during the invasion of Poland and early Blitzkrieg campaigns. The kit features accurate early-production details, refined surface textures, and multiple marking options.


Focus on Early WWII Subjects

These releases highlight IBG Models’ continued dedication to early WWII history, particularly the often-overlooked opening phase of the war in 1939. By combining:

  • Polish cavalry figures
  • Authentic weapons and equipment
  • Early German armored vehicles

modelers are given the tools to recreate historically significant encounters from the invasion of Poland, one of the defining moments of WWII.


Key Features of IBG Models Kits

IBG Models maintains a distinct identity within the hobby industry through its focus on:

  • Historically accurate and underrepresented subjects, especially Polish and Eastern European forces
  • High-quality molding with fine surface detail
  • Carefully researched equipment and uniform accuracy
  • Kits that work well together for cohesive diorama building

This combination makes IBG particularly appealing to modelers interested in historical storytelling and realistic battlefield scenes.


Upcoming Releases and Future Projects

Looking ahead, IBG Models continues to expand its range across both vehicles and figures.

Upcoming Highlights:

  • Expansion of Polish Army 1939 Series
    Additional infantry, cavalry, and support equipment sets to further develop early-war diorama possibilities.

  • Early-War German Vehicle Line (1/35 scale)
    More light tanks and support vehicles expected, complementing kits like the Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf. a1.

  • Soft-Skin Vehicle Releases (1/35 scale)
    Continued focus on trucks and support vehicles, an area where IBG has built a strong reputation.

  • Additional Figure and Accessories Sets
    New releases aimed at enhancing existing kits with more dynamic posing and specialized equipment.


Ideal for Diorama Builders

The combination of kits 35050, 35051, and 35075 provides an excellent foundation for diorama builders looking to recreate early WWII scenes. Together, these kits allow hobbyists to:

  • Depict Polish cavalry units in action
  • Equip figures with accurate weapons and gear
  • Pair them with early German armor for dynamic battlefield settings

This integrated approach reflects IBG’s growing emphasis on scene-building rather than standalone kits.
