For a paper subject, the Leopard looks very interesting. I read about that while I was researching the Panzer III.

I'm all over that Leopard, just as soon as I build this E-50 sitting in front of me.

That Leopard does look cool.

Wasn't HB going to release a Merkava IV as well? Any word on that beast?

Regards and Aloha,

Uh. Is it just me or have I been seeing many LWS kits of late? Haven't really been paying attention to tracked stuff for some time now though, so I could be wrong about that.

The Leopard looks very nice though. Great kit to display alongside the Pz IIL Luchs.

No. The phenomenon is very real.

Variants and sub-variants being released by multiple manufacturers (I make this the sixth now, in the space of less than 2 years).

The LWS is fast shaping up to be the "new Tiger"

Really nice stuff. Definitely something different from yet another Tiger or Panther. Could be nice to see the Leopard next to a Puma armoured car, since they appear to have the same turret.

Thanks for the update
