Yup this has no doubt been done a million times but after the way the done the T-55 last christmas do you think they will do the same this year and with what? In a recent tamiya mag marcus nicholls said he had been told what was coming but was sworn to keep it secret any guess's not just a wish list I think the moneys on a marder gepard now that alans done one

They are getting in on the 1/16 figure market again also. They have a whermacht soldier out now with choice of two heads and also a sheet of decals for all his markings! Rumour has it they are also bringing out a desert storm marine! Anybody who has never built a figure before should try one of these. There are 6 out already and these 2 make 8. Cheaper than most others at this scale and with a little help can make excellent models. Also helps in figure painting.

Caveman:
I assume you're talking about an AAV7 witht he EAAK armor... is that a rumor you have heard or just speculation?
Thanks!!!

My two cents, a good HEMTT or M925 would be nice.

What about that 1/48 scale B-17 that everyone was talking about. Are they coming out with that yet?
