Hi Roy,

Don't throw the block party just yet. I'll wait for the release.

Like Jim mentioned in David's post, you have to wonder if Tamiya and ICM have got together on this ??
Anyway you paint it, it'll would be great to see the Matilda finally being given a re-do !!!
Cheers

Man, I for one cannot wait! I had the original Matilda right after its release, and have always missed the recent re-releases, but if a new one is coming down the pike, well thats just great! Its an important tank, and a new kit (or even a second kit) is loooong over due! Its definitely on my wish list.
