These look terrific. This made me go look at miniart's online product listing which made me think of a couple of questions about miniart figures.
- any idea about how long between announcement and release? (I guess that's a perpetual question for every mfrr)
- it looks like a lot of their figures are listed as discontinued. Do their discontinued things ever get reissued?

These are fantastic! We always can use more tank riders. These have a very “Operation Bagration” feel to them. I’ll likely pick up both sets to make a future T34/85 or Su SPG/tank destroyer diorama.

Looks like most, if not all, of these figures could also be used on the ground, too!

These look awesome,I will have to look at set # 1 and pick up both sets. The sets would be great for the Russian offensive of June 44,as there are numerous pics of infantry riding into battle on tanks. I have quite a few of the latest Miniart fig sets, they have come a long way in quality since their early sets from years ago. I would love them to put out some more British and Canadian ww2 fig sets like the tank riders and mine detecter sets. Please keep them coming Miniart.
