Between Tamiya and Hobby Boss, we seem to have every version of the Sherman imaginable. Sure would be nice to do the derivatives! A recovery vehicle would be cool too! Tamiya's done a great job with the Brit stuff, so a Sexton would also be welcome!

Does anyone have any idea if a 1/48 Priest or Sexton is planned? Seems like I remember that the folks at Gasoline were going to do a Priest Conversion. They had some pics up for a short time, then it disappeared.

CMK has a recovery version I think it goes for around $30 It's going to take time for the companies to make either kits or conversions I think one of the reasons some companies may be hesitant to make conversions of something popular is,the main companies,like Tamiya may come out with a plastic version
Case in point
The SU122 Gasoline made a resin conversion for the Tamiya T34 A few months later,Tamiya makes an SU122 in plastic

Oh how I wish that were true...
As for the M7, I don't think anyone has one in the works. I would venture though, that sooner or later Tamiya will come out with an M-3 Lee/Grant and the A/M folks will give us an M7 conversion shortly afterwards. I'd say by fall of 2010 we'll see it
