We've just received these masters from one of the designers (I think he's on the forum somewhere!). We won't have time to mould these in time for the April releases, but we will make them available as an advance show special for Triples and Salute.
Let us know what you think.

Nice - love the command tank, superb 8)
I'll second the motion on the command tank, it looks great! As does the 251 with the map table... and the Jeeps (want a few of those). Oh and I'll have to get one of the Churchill's just because they look so cool tank.
*sigh* I'd better get back to the painting table. May you say? I should be done before then, unless I order those paras I've been looking at.

Very nice. The German command vehicles are very useful for Panzer/Panzer-grenadier command/HQs. I'll have to get some later in the year for my mid 1943 Ostfront units.

Does this mean we might get a fascine add-on for the WW1 Mkvs too? :-*
very nice cant wait :) any chance of gun crew for SPG's? wespe, hummel etc etc
I'll have to check on the WW1 fascine to see if there was much difference?
I'll add the gun crews to the list as well.
Just picked these masters up from the WMMS show and thought people might like a sneaky look!

I think the BT5 is on a table somewhere being finished, I'll have to check. The Jap armour is also in the process of being done. And I've recently emailed a list of stuff to another designer, including your German AT rifle.
I'll let Jenna know about the :-*, although Megamatman might not be too happy about it! 8)

Thank You,

YAY! T26 is finally here! And the Panther looks cool.

Hi there,
Love the ranges. love the minis , but still cannot understand why on earth one would sculpt wheels with such soft material (Green epoxy/stuff) , It does create inconsistancies in shape and size.
The other day i got a kubelwagen with square wheels....very dissapointing.

Sorry about that, we'll have a look at the mould and see if it needs any repairs.
Will this be the first model ever of a M5 HST in any scale? Don't recall any at all (excluding 1/35 models), I recall Hasegawa did the M4 HST I think, or was that the M5? ::)

It'll be too close to the end of the month to get these moulded up in time for the August Releases, but we'll let you know as soon as they are ready.
Let us know your thoughts!
Ooh, they are very, very nice 8).
Agreed - that BT5 is spot-on...and the truck is great [could even use that for Balkans in the 90s...] 8)
