I was wondering how soon this would appear, I think someone owes Vinnie Brannigan an apology..

Hi Guys,
I'm delighted about this, with their Comet, Humber Scout Car, Staghound II and III and now this one it's happy days all around for me. Just can keep up with all the new good stuff.
I hope this opens the way for further early British Tanks and Armoured Cars. The sales of their previous issues much have justified some more British stuff which can only be good news for future developments.
With the AFV Club doing a Churchill Mk III, and their are many more possibilities there I could be busy for some coinsiderable time
Some of the Figure Manufacturers are catching on to, might we see a Churchil Tank Crew in 1/35 or a General Tank Crew or 3 lol, lol. There are a Bitish Jeep Crew in the pipe-line from MiniArt (I think) Oh happy days.
Question is now who's going to produce all those lovely British/Commonwealth Trucks to supply the vehicles lol, lol.
Have fun folks

- Quote from Terry AshleyBronco have now officially announced this forthcoming kit to quell the speculation arising out of the initial mention of the kit.
That's the key point really. Prior to this it was pretty much 'unofficial'. A lot of Editors get given advance news - always with the unspoken agreement you'll keep it to yourself until the company green-lights it. With the present climate of the 'Release Wars' it's also desirable for a company to keep their release program 'discreet' or confidential.
At the moment, I could run several news stories based on what I was told by several manufacturers at Nuremberg, Terry could probably write even more. Neither of us will do it though.
So, as a previous poster suggested, I doubt any apology is necessary..
This post was removed.

Hi Guys,
This is a thread about a much wanted and waited for model. A new A13 in plastic injection, brillient news.
If you want to have a flame war please do it in another post OK.
Hats off to Bronco on this one too
Have fun that's what the hobby is all about.

No need....you did that well enough yourself.
Oh, and if you want to take shots at other people then at least have the chutzpa to use your real name.
Thanks for the post Alan! Actually Matt the proofs in steel (or is that aluminum??) since that appears to be one of the actual mold dies.
Cheers,
Mike

Excellent news,
bring on the commonweath AFV's!
Now we just need a few more figure sets to go with it all!
Some other interesting releases from Bronco there too, I think they'll do very well in the future....

Bronco is developing into one of the premier model suppliers. I am most impresseed with their Comet and Staghound. The A13 should be another milestone for them.
Wow!

You're right Mike, that would be tool steel, wouldn't it? Even better!
My heartfelt wish -
All the guys who for years have looked longingly at the Accurate Armour cruisers, but didn't have enough in their wallet because they had to pay for diapers or braces, buy the A13 and Bronco sets all kinds of sales records, and.......
the DML boys, sitting on furniture made from unsold Stug III with Fording Muffler boxes, look at each other and say, "Hmmmm. We need six tickets to Bovington and bring the tape measure!!! "
