Not sure if it will be a white Christmas, a little too early to tell, but it does looking like Dragon might be delivering a Sexton for Christmas.

Another StuG! Good thing about the many releases they all seem to have something that separates them from the others, unlike the boundless M4s and Tigers!

To bad it doesn't come with the Canadian Dry Pin Track System.

That is a pretty niave (at best) or trolling (at worst) comment. To imply that DML's Stug releases offer something that seperates them from the rest whilsttheir Shermans don't. Their are significant differences in Hull shapes & angle , types, Engines, Engine Decks, Turrets, Armanents tracks etc in DML's many releases of the venerable Sherman. Most of these aren;'t simple incremental changes either as you would expect with 50,000 produced. There are still major subvariants built in the many hundreds that have not been kitted yet just as I am sure there are many more different Stugs, Panthers and Tigers not yet kitted.

Amen to that. I've been looking at the Tiger kits that might appear from DML in the future, and I can see 4 to 6 different ones being necessary, purely because they won't include multiple versions of major components like a turret or hull.
