Wow! A must have. I have been messing off and on with the Tamiya 48a3, but a new tooled one would be awesome!

First off that's awesome news. this one moves to the front of my build list the minute it's in my hands.

Now, I don't mean to be greedy, but I hope this means we might get what I really want which is an M60A1 done to the same standards as the Dragon M1A1 SEP. Oh, and then Cyber Hobby can release a special version with the blade on the front!

What great news! I saw it over on PMMS and nearly fell out of my chair... Maybe this is a portent of future MODERN DML offerings??? I sure hope so.

Looks like we don't have to glue the guide horns on this one. At least, judging by the color of them.

Hmmmm... I like the DS tracks so maybe?

Hot damn, I've been wanting to start up a line of 35th scale resins for some time!!!!!!! And I can think of quite a few sets to go with this one. Gotta have one, maybe two, maybe 4 of these puppies!
