I thought the "K-9 set" was an interior for Academy's new K-9 155mm self-propelled howitzer. Imagine my disappointment when it turned to be a set of resin K-9 dogs.

Well, you knew the M1114 with FRAG 5 was coming out a few months ago when I posted photos of the doors. But the dogs even caught me by surprise. I'll have to have a few, since we used them on more than one occasion.
At any rate, if this news makes you happy, wait'll you see what else is coming.

The new stuff is 'available' at LM, but not yet 'in-stock' the two mean very different things. We may have wait a week or so yet for them to actually have the stuff stocked, anyways I put an order in for the Humvee crew figures...
