Carson of DKLM started to advertise them for pre-order last week.

Of special interest are the three M-60 variants (A1, A3 and Israeli) but they are very basic, inaccurate but cheap. They have the benefit of representing a new product in this scale (if they are finally released) and could become affordable bases for custom projects.

They're already released. I can buy now from a Taobao store if I wanted one in all plastic but will wait to see the metal versions which are to follow.

I agree with you Louis. The M-60s are very basic, inaccurate and details are soft. Also to me something just looks "wonky" when viewed from the side? However they are the only RTR game in town for now though!

I think they sit too low on their suspension which makes them look wonky

That's what I was thinking as well Tom.
