Happy New Year to everyone and hope you have a great year ahead.

We have started back at work today and will work our way through emails over the net couple of days - so please bear with us.

In the meantime, here is a little teaser of what is to come this year ..... :wink:

Youse guys are spoiling all the fun, the surprise. The next model(s) don't really matter until they're released, right?

Whatever the models that are decided upon will be the right ones. The Armortek elves are releasing kits faster than I can build them anyway.

I hope you are right but the Leopard 2a7 is closer if you look carefully at this image.

They look like Leopard tracks to me, Challies have a recess between the track pads.
