#1: For the modellers amongst us Author: Al_Bowie, Posted: Sun Jan 29, 2006 8:35 pm ---- Looks to be a great year for AFV Modellers with some long overdue kits to fill in missing gaps.
Most notable to me are:
AFV Club
Mk V Centurian (Austrlian SVN)
DML
M4A2 Marines Tarawa (apparently a 56 deg hul with welded hoods and NEW early turret
SHERMAN III - (soon) apparently not the same as the above variant (cast hoods? - it is not a dv with M3 suspension.
M4A3 HVSS 76mm
Plus the obligatory hoard of German stuff including 234 AC's and 38T variants. They are also redoing the JS2 and most of the German stuff with new PE and turned barrels etc.
Italeri
Saharina AC
Skdz 140/1
ELCO 35th Scale PT Boat (I kid you not)
Italian Chariot with Divers 35th
Given that the main Toy Fairs are still to come it looks to be a bumper year for Armour releases
