More prototypes.
Dragon, you do know there are AFV's that were actually built and used in need of a quality representation. How about something in the form of a T37, T38, or T26 series. If you can't bring yourself to do early war Soviet then how about at least covering the early Panzer III (A thru D) series.

Not what I wanted, but it's German, so it will sell. I'm frustrated as there are announced releases I want to see, and this has already been released by Trumpeter. I'll just keep waiting.

Is it just me, or does this vehicle look like a slightly larger version of an ASU 85 Maybe some russian designer got a peek at the drawings and thought, hmm, maybe if....
Well, just a thought.

I am very happy with that realising of that waffenträger. We should not forget that several were biuld and saw service in the closing days of war. The only thing I wont is the ardelt one which is offered by alan, azimut and S-Modell; but no one is correct or easy to build

Interesting, but man is that ugly! That big grille on the front looks off-putting! Neat kit, but I am not big on prototypes, save for the Porsche Tiger I...it's unique at least.....isn't that what we want?

I don't think so. There are sooooooo many real tanks that have been in service for decades that have yet to be produced in plastic.
