Mine will probably be this 70mm Franco Prussian war piece once it is released by Elite.



Or maybe a couple of the 40mm Napoleonic figures from Perry Mniatures.

This, I posted 2 days ago.

Quoted Text

Im in the same boat ... I have lots of models to build and 14 underway. I hate having so many .. it makes buying seem silly. I have instructed the wife though to get me the trumpeter 1/16 T34 for christmas.
So between now and then, hopefully I wont be tempted to buy more kits ... maybe just the odd accessory for those i am building!


Today while doing the shopping, I spotted the Italeri "German horse drawn convoy" and bought it. I went with the wife to IKEA and there is a hobby store beside it. I accidently wandered in and left with this!
I didnt even know this was released yet!

I'm working on the Trumpeter 1:16 T34/76 mod. 43 at the moment, so that will take some time!! But it seems I'm infected by a kind of Russian microbe, so it won't be impossible that my next purchase will be a T-55 with PE and so on....
BTW, any recommendations for a t-55 kit??

See what you've done...you got me wanting to buy a new kit again!!

Guess I'm an addict, John.

On their way at the moment are:

DML Panther A (lates) Normandy special edition.
DML 352nd Volksgrenadier figures

As for the next kits to be bought, I am thinking about the following:

Williams F1 BMW FW24
Repsol Honda RC 211V
DML King Tiger (Henschel)

But I have to finish some first...

I have too many kits still in the making: Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire Mk.I, Tamiya StuG III G and italeri M1A2 all painted but needs finishing, decaling and weathering to finish.
to add insult to an injury I also have Academy's M-51 with the Eduard PE set awaiting base coating.

I plan to purchase either a DML Firefly, Tamiya T-55, Tamiya's P-47 or Trumpeter's Sa-2 with Zil transporter in the near future.

Pretty sure it will be a vintage Hasegawa Japanese Army Fuel truck. That's in 1:72. I've done a WWII US fuel truck, and a cold war Soviet fuel truck in the same scale. I don't know why I like doing these, maybe the high price of fuel - be nice to have a couple of the real things sitting in the back yard, full.
