Thanks for posting these
I think the FAV should win an award for the longest time a kit was shown in a catalog without being released

Hobbyboss: Nagmachon with and without doghouse, Nagmashot and VBL with MILAN 
Trumpeter: T-72B2, T-72B3 and T-B3M
Since the companies have the main hulls and turrets they release the many variants with small differences (i am talking about the T-72B3 and T-72B3M). But what about the IDF Puma maybe they should consider to release the Puma with carpet or the Puma with doghouse or the Puma Batash version OR taking advantage of the Nagmachon versions maybe they could consider releasing the Nakpadon! 
Same many parts but different scale models!

I can finally get rid of that horrible Ba-20 from the early 90's from Russia.

The new MLRS and M915 are most welcomed. Hopefully the MLRS will be of good quality and have the full cab interior and M26 launch pods.
I guess the M6A2 Linebacker they hinted at a few weeks ago didn't make the new catalog. I hope it is still in the works.

If you look at the catalogs of previous years, you'll see that the majority of the new and interesting stuff isn't included in them.. they come up as surprise announcements throughout the year.. So, don't worry if you don't see it here

Well, I DID say wait. Those who consider my comments whining, or whinging as the case may be, can buy the second rate kits when they come out, or wait.

I know this question will cause me some embarrassment, but where did you see the new MLRS? I went through all the pages of both catalogs!

I think Trumpeter's 1/32 Devastator is celebrating its 9th year as a new release!

I couldn't find the M915 or the MLRS either at first, but they are in the Merit International Catalog. There are four versions of the MLRS. Look at this thread here:

Yup, right here. No inner circle, you just have to look around. I saw it in the other thread too.

Oh man I hope they actually release that M915!! I wanted to do Minimans a few years back, but was a little too pricey for me.

Yep you are right. And lets hope these items don't fall through the cracks like all the M992's that have been announced. And hope they have a trailer with it.

The 915 will also be nice for a project like this.. I think MinimanFactory did something similar.
What could be used to make the rear bed that I point to in the pic? Besides scratching it

That is a 3/4 ton M101 trailer sitting on the rear of the truck.
Miniman Factory also does a kit of it.
You could also use the Italeri/Bilek M105 1/2 ton trailer from the below set. The bed was the same, just a different suspension and wheels.
