New Tanks from IMEX coming

[jtracks]

I was reading a post on another forum from Erik of Taigen/IMEX. He has announced a few new tanks that will be coming next year. Here is what I read. Panther F and G will be available with metal lower hulls. The F model with have the G chassis with the F turret. Both turrets will be available separately. They will have the metal road wheels. Next, a 76MM and 105MM Sherman. He is pushing for a split hatch on the 76MM. They are supposed to be newly designed turrets. Do I smell an E-8, or have I set my sights too high.

Joe, Thanks for the heads up,
By the way there is no reason to be coy, quite a few of us are also members of "RCU",
I like it because it mostly follows a different path to our Forum with no great emphasis on builds so no great conflict,
And by the way "ERIK" is a member of both Forum as well.

Erik is a member here? What's his screen name? He really helped me out with the mixed up Tiger drive sprockets! Hell of a good guy, can't wait to get money to spend with him!

Jack Hi, Erik joined us in September 2013 and has taken the outrageous title "IMEX-ERIK"
just so that nobody knows who it really is I guess.

Joe, you mean the late Panther all metal road wheels, right ? Similar to the late Tigers ? Just sold my F but would love to have another one that has the all metal road wheels. I tried to convert once from Late Tiger Is and it ended in disaster.

Hello Shaun, I wasn't aware Erik was a member here. RCU is starting to get a little over whelming with their ads IMO. Also, I don't like the Tamiya vrs everything else attitude that seems to exist there. I have both and find both have their faults.

Hi Michael, if I was reading between the lines correctly, the late metal road wheels.
