Maybe they are 'speechless' Dennis.

Certainly a 'missing link' in Allied Modelling. Never used in combat itself, so maybe everyone is waiting for the Kangaroo, flame thrower, ARV or observation version?

Maybe it is because it was not a widely used tank and not many are interested. Or it could be that you seem to be bored since you appear to be answering almost every post with no real added value and lots of unnecessary capitalized words.

Talking of Kangaroos, Italeri have just released one, although it seems to be based on the Priest.

Another instance were we need a like button. Must be some sort of desire to get the highest amount of post numbers on the site because as you say "no real added value and lots of unnecessary capitalized words."

"Wow!" and "Finally" were my initial thoughts. Looking forward to a build review on this one and the eventual release of all its variants. Yah Canada!

I’m compelled to buy this even though I have too much in the stash already. I almost bought the expensive conversion sets first by verlinden? And later I believe formations had one, but I’m happy I never did, I’d much rather work with plastic
