Gentlemen, and I use that term loosely! :D

I am interested to know from everyone what they would like to see specifically or in the brad sense coming onto the market in the next say, 2 years.
And lets prioritize and say you are limited to 3 items!

For example I would like to see:
1. Sherman Firefly from one of the lesser (HL) companies or at least the turret. I know the barrel is around if you can actually get one shipped!
2. Proper set of late Panther road wheels
3. and finally a lee/grant tank with the IR system operational in both guns! :haha:

Now of course, some of the things that will get listed here probably are available or a viable solution which is great because then the people that are looking for them will have some type of answer and that is the point of the exercise! :thumbup:

I look forward to hearing from many of you!

Hi Dean,

if you ask me so, I would like to have some Russian armour in 1:16 scale from the eighties, like for example the T-72, T-80, the BMP 1 and 2 or an MT-LB. Do you know some of this vehicles?

Hi Hotte,

Yes, I am familiar with them. Way back then I wore a funny green suit and my job was to practice killing them! :haha: Fortunately we never had to do it for real. Although I'm sure there are some Brit royal marines who are still pissed off at me for lighting up their scorpions with my LSTS back in 81 on a backroad in Norway! :D (They were pretending to be ??????? ??????- Russian Naval Infantry)

I hope for you, that a few certain British royal marines do not read these lines. :shh:

A Panzer 4 metal hull is long overdue, as is a Centurian, just think of the after market upgrades for Israeli versions, and I have never seen a Panzer 11 in 1/16, oh well just an old man dreaming. shaun
