What should the next Armortek kit be?

It is not 1/6 but it is a DUKW that can be made to do all the right things - apparently:

I like the idea of the Hertzer Chiang. A simple to build tank that runs in line with "Jagdpanzer" range, having been the owner of a JP it would sit nicely in the collection. And WONT break the bank, I hope.

Kent brings up a very good point. There is already a superb Hetzer on the market. I completely forgot.

sorry

You forgot the Pz I...It would make a damned fine and economical kit.

I always think of steam engines when I see the Pz I, something to do with the bar which goes along the road wheels.

Ha Ha! It just reminds me that Dale had scratch-built 2 T-34/76 (half finished). Very impressive. Maybe it's a good chance to show them to everybody here. Well, Dale?

I have been sitting back just looking at all the commets, now it's my time for my two bob's worth .1 do we go for a smaller tank and sell more of them as to keep the price down in this time of hard ship.or 2 make a tank with lots of opption,like the T 34.eg:34/57,34/76,34/85 as well as obr41,42 well you get picture. or 3 just make a tank. Tanks that mite fit the light class may be things like the Soviet T 60,T70 scout tank,the Italian L6/40,may be the M14/40or R35,the Briish Tetrach,the German PanzerII L Luchs(one of my picks from this lot)or the panzer 38t/marder/hetzer/flakpanzer/wespe which all so fits into class 2 type.last but to lest in the 3rd classcould be SU 76,SU 122,KV1e,KV85,Semovent75/18,Cromwell/Centaur,Matilda,Crusader,Lee/Grant and if we can make the controls fit thinks like M10/c,M18 hellcat,Hemmel,Grille H / K. Well i will get off my soap box now ,grab my flak jacket and see
Possum
