How did I miss this.
I want thest too.
agreed, +1 vote from me!
Of course, we'll need limbered 155mm Long Tom guns and 8" howitzers for those M4 tractors to tow too.

Do you have RSI yet, Leon, with all these "Votes added" posts? ;)
Na he's using a resitivity meter to find em then cut and paste
Could Leon please clarify the process on these requests for the benefit of those who haven't been logged on for 100 days. At the moment it looks like:
Forum members post a suggestion. Some dating back to 2019
Other members reply sometimes adding support or useful information but often with thread derailments
At some stage Leon replies "votes added" to every one of them.
But most seem to be minor "range filling" suggestions so whether they are commercially viable relative to adding whole wars not covered by the existing catalog must be a tricky judgement.
So does that close the voting? Do the number of replies count as votes?
I be confused. Admittedly not difficult to do.
As I understand it, roughly once a year, Leon updates the votes tally and creates a "Top Ten" which informs Pendraken's plans for new figures in the coming year.
The votes are a rough indication of interest but aren't a guarantee of production. In a world where Boaty McBoatface seems a sensible name for a research vessel caution must be taken :)
I assume the availability of appropriate sculptors, likely competition and past experience all go to shape the decision.
If you are keen to see something produced then saying so on the relevant part of the forum can only boost the chances of that happening.
The alternative is fsn's "Delenda Est Carthago!" campaign in favour of a Centurion miniature. :)

Copy and paste all the way!

So I've got 20+ sheets of paper here with everything that's ever been requested/suggested since the start of the Forum in 2010. As each person adds their interest I add a vote to that suggestion. The most popular ones in theory should be the most viable to produce so we try to tailor our sculpting/release plans to incorporate them. It's not an ideal solution as we've had a lot of distractions in recent years but we've steadily knocked off a lot of the requested items.
The most recent Top 10 was in 2020 and is here: https://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,19335.0.html I'd normally do a votes check each year but with the pandemic and our reduced sculpting capacity I'd not done one since Jan '20. I've still got a few pages of threads to go through and then I'll publish a new Top 10, hopefully later this week.
EDIT: Mike beat me to it!
