Hi Guys
I would love to see a re run of a M4A3 Sherman as I have said before missed out first time round
as I went for my Panther G instead way back in time now.
Or a jagdpanther ....
Just saying
Regards
Derek

As long as a 76mm turret is offered as an option, I'm in!
I wonder how long it will be until we know what the next kit will be?
Cheers,
Alex

After seeing Heiko Sattler's Sdkfz 164, I am going to say a Nashorn.
Cheers, Paul.

I think it might be a Pz IV universal hull with some fun optional tops, such as a Panzerjäger IV, a Wirbelwind (AAA with the Vierling) or maybe even a bridgelayer. We would need one of those!
Oh, and a Dora gun!

On Sept.12 we had the 2nd Annual Armortek Owners Meet at the Danville (Virginia) AAF Armor Museum. And WOW! the AAF Museum has THREE examples of the M113 Armored Personnel Carrier! One is in the basic design, one has missiles, and one has the Vulcan weapons system (with reactive armor!).
Since the M113 has been used by SO MANY countries around the world for the last 60 years (up to today!) in SO MANY conflicts, and was available in SO MANY different configurations, I feel the M113 would be an EXCELLENT Armortek choice to be made! There's some individual modelers who has made it as a static model but an RC metal version would really raise interest!

Can any of you sharp minded forum members remember what was on the Armortek model Wishlist survey from a year or so ago? I reckon that will be the route to predicting the future here..
I can remember the survey had on it;
-Land Rover
-Easy Eight Sherman
I think these might have been on it;
-Hetzer?
-Abrams?
-Leopard?
-M113?
Can any one fill in the blanks or correct me?
Cheers,
Alex

I got confirmation that the Stug ships this month so does that mean a new kit will be announced soon?

Boys, boys.... you all remind me of me when I was but a wee lad. I'd get a nervous sick tummy often before Christmas in anticipation of what Santa would bring! My poor parents didn't know what to do.
I still get queasy when I know a model tank is winging its way over to me!
All good things in their time.
That said please let it be an Easy Eight... please let it be an Easy Eight.... please...
Thank goodness I've no shortage of model projects to keep me busy...
