Super Smashing Great.

Never mind the Tigger2

Look what we could have had!

Imposing, dominating, accurate and deadly.

The Tank that looks like and sounds like a Tank!

A mans Tank! Chieftain!

Make sure I'm included on the buyers wish list Stephen.

Merry Christmas to all.

Isn't this the time of year when this thread should be alive with speculation about what's coming in January?

Or was the Grant/Lee the 'big news?'

Happy New Year to everyone!

Cheers,

Jagdtiger please, I could do so much with an Armortek JT, What's the chance of you guy's offering one as your are soon to tool up with the KT release?

I know it has a stretched KT chassis but it has many common parts. A limited number of JT kits could be produced along side the KT...go on it would be awesome! Please please please please please, I will write a song or a poem :twisted:

Fortunately I own an 1/6 " Bigtanks Jagdtiger since 2 years. This model earns large attention at every tank meeting, though ist is simplier constructed and featured as Armortek models are. Therefore I think that an Armortek Jagdtiger would be a great eyecatcher! OK, it would be a large and heavy model, but the Famo is large too and is already nearly sold out, isn't it?
kind regards
Gerhard

Well I'm going to make a quick bid before the results are in.

The Sherman Firefly!

Raising it to Easy Eight with a 76mm.

Just because I love animated suspension.

I think it safe to say that tomorrow's release will be something new, what ever the release I will be very interested to see the unveiling.

This waiting to hear what the new release is STRESSFUL!

I've already been saving up for possibly getting a King Tiger (even though EVERYBODY and their brother already has one!). Now I'm waiting for the new release tomorrow. Then I'll be wondering what the NEXT mid to late summer release will be!

Decisions, decisions...

I am willing to bet you guys money (or Armorpax parts) that the new model falls somewhere between these two armoured vehicle classes....

And this:

Though I bet the FAMO owners would really jump all over option 2!

While I would be mortgaging the farm for one of these! In 1:1!!!

Seems like there are a lot of happy Chieftian fans here this morning!

Which is a very good thing! As long as I can remember... the drum has been banged loudly for a Chieftain! And since the folks at Armortek listen, your prayers have been answered!

Beautiful-looking kit! Hope all the fans are going to love it and that we'll see some amazing builds here in the months ahead.

Congrats all!

Cheers,

RPR
