This News Story is simply an attempt to get up to date with the announced releases - for those who may have missed them in the forums, from AFV Club at the Tokyo Hobby Show.
This list is basically a mixture of the old and the new. In the case of the Sturmtiger and the M88, these were previously announced. With the others, these were unveiled at the Tokyo Hobby Show.

One of the more 'intriguing' is undoubtedly this - being only one of three announced releases of this vehicle...



The next, are part of a interesting theme which AFV Club is pursuing with the 251/22, 251/1 Ausf. D 'Falke' and Pak 40 all in one box:



The next is clearly tied in with the previous release:



Onto the more 'conventional' releases, the first is the second version of a long-awaited subject:



The next, is again a popular subject amongst modellers:



Once again, an interesting subject here- the M88 ARV Vehicle:




Finally, a vehicle which has featured in many of the hypothetical lists for a while:



One last note, AFV Club/Hobby Fan have, for the first time, now done their website in English....

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" Jeff

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!
