Okay, I'm not sure that this is news to anyone, but I didn't find mention when I searched armor. One of the big things I noticed at the iHobby show yesterday, were armored version of the LMTV in 1/35 scale by Trumpeter. I know they had the M1078 out, but hadn't heard boo about the armored versions. I'd love to see them in my preferred scale of 1/72, but they do look really well done. Also, Trumpter seems to intend of finishing out the family of Stryker vehicles with Command versions, CNBC, and Medical transport versions on display as well. Sorry guys, no photos, my wife had the camera elsewhere while I spent a few hours at the show.
Not too much to mention for Braille scale, but the Profiline German trucks do look good in person.

Thanks for the update. I'm definitely looking forward to the armored M1078.
