Right now, those T29s Trumpeter said they're making... Can't wait for those to be released. I'm hanging on edge for them (this isn't a commonly used phrase... Is it?) .... Literally...

I'm easy -

Takom to release a T-54 based on their very impressive looking upcoming T-55MV kit.

Someone releases an interior set for the Trumpeter BMP-1/1P kits (hey, it's only the most mass-produced IFV in history).

We finally get a new tool 1/35 UH-1D/H Huey or at least a conversion kit for this interesting subject http://www.planepictures.net/netshow.php?id=961314 (I know they aren't tanks, cut me some slack anyway....).

EDIT - just noted that this was a braille scale wishlist. My bad but since others have made the same mistake, I'll leave my post intact in hopes that the modeling gods smile upon me.

I see this thread was meant for New Years posting..."Late again" seems to be the story of my life.

Any rate ... I have the Waterloo1815 Italian Tankmen, Driver & Artillery Crew in 1/72 scale. It is a superb set and I would love to see something similar for the 8th Army and Afrika Korps.

They could also do them for regular Wehrmacht over several periods as well as US Army, British, French, Russian and Polish armies. I hope the sets sell well enough that Waterloo1815 consider these possibilities.

I have built a few of the ACE AS 37 series kits. They came out OK but I have to say they were some of the most challenging models I have ever done. From reviews I gather that ACE has really improved their quality. Retooling some of their earlier kits would be a welcome addition to the otherwise obscure vehicles they are covering.

To Aoshima, the Type 16 MCV, standalone JSDF figure set, and airfield vehicles.
To anyone, modern PLA vehicles and figures to boot.


Quoted Text

--Id like to see Bronco release the Sdkfz 263 kit they promised as the afv club offering is rather over-engineered.



Bronco is the last company i'd expect to see the opposite of over-engineering from.
