Greeting all,
That's a nice range of the old and the new. Something for everyone. The 3 in one kit (night fighter) was on a special off for those who missed it, there's a post floating around somewhere; price worked out about £10.00 per kit.
Cheers
Al

I am very happy to see both the Stryker and the Stuart. Now, when do we suppose we will see the long anticipated M-42 Duster and Skybow's promised M-37 series of 3/4 t trucks ( yes, I know I am whining)

Jim, in the announcement, you mentioned that there are three planned releases of the Stryker coming out. Other than AFV Club and Trumpeter, who is the other one?

Dragon has also announced one as a future release.

Dragon is also doing one. I think they actually announced they are doing the "Stryker family"

Just noticed the Lucky Model now has the AFV Club 1/35th scale workable early Tiger I track, so if you haven't started that Afrika Tiger kit, now is the time! The late tracks were really neat, and much easier and faster to assemble than Model Kasten versions (and less than half the price), so I ordered two for my Eastern Front and DAK versions.

As did I (on a On-line HS here in Spain) - difference being that here the retail is $20+ (against the $11.29 of LM) with MINIMUM postage of $12 (against the 47 cents of LM). Once again, the blood pressure goes up just a little further....Aaarggghhh!
