Saw it announced over on PMMS. No pics or other details. Great news, now how long will it take Dragon to release theirs?

If it's a new release this will make one of my modeling dreams come true. It would mean that we could expect all the other variants to follow.

Ah, but is it in the production pipeline behind the M42 Duster they announced years ago?...

Or perhaps the even longer awaited AFV Club Firefly VC announced in the Catalogue in 93-94 before DML's came out?
Very welcome release none the less

Someone over on M-L did say they've seen test shots... that sounds more reliable than either the Duster or Firefly.

We can hope.

What I would really like to see is a set of plastic tracks to replace the Italeri ones... I've seen the Fruils for the LVT family, and I just can't see myself making it through those.

Or the M8 HMC?:)
I do love AFV Club though.

Maybe with the LVT-4 and the M8 HMC, we would then see the LVT-A4. I'll just keep waiting.

The kit is now listed as in stock at Hobby Search. I am tempted but I think I will wait to see what Hobbyeasy or Lucky has it for
