I want that new Dragon Sherman Vc tank. I also would enjoy a Tamiya Stuart Honey as well. Some British figures would be nice and some paints for my airbrush.

Yes, supposedly they retooled their Firefly Vc. I always thought the Vc was a nice kit, but purists say it had some turret issues.

Add in new tool US halftracks for me as well.

This year I'm going without asking for any new kits for Christmas, (gonna try and clean out my stash a little) and I'll probably pick up a couple at the end of January at the show here (Atlanta). What I have done is give my better half a list of nice reference books for the inlaws to pick from. Among them a couple of the real expensive JJ Fedorowicz titles, so I'm hoping I'll get at least one of those in addition to a few more.

Happy Holidays everyone! (:-)

Hi. I would like the AFV Club Pak 40/41 AT gun in 1/35. The Academy 1/25 Panther Ausf G. (late) would be nice too. (I would set this one back for a while to wait and see what the after-market people come up with for it). And an M1unit to go with Tamiya's OIF Bradley, maybe DML's or Trumpeter's. Other than that I can't think of anything.

I'm kind of hoping for a slower year in new kit releases this coming year, as I'm so far backed up I don't think I will ever get caught up on the building end of things.

Take care, girty

Hi Santa
I would like the new three volume Leopard 1 set from Barbarossa books for my library. I have asked my wife to get me the Faun tractor from Trumpeter. I would also like Tamiya, Academy or Trumpeter to do a Stryker next year.
By the way thanks for the advice on pre Staff College readings. I got through all of them although I found Jomini a bit arrogant in his approach. We are 15 weeks into it with another 30 to go. I guess Santa can't grant me an extra couple of hours over the 24 per day so I could do some medelling as well as study?

About all I want is the Tamiya Grant and Matilda. That will complete my collection of Tamiya British armor. After that I'll have to start on DML, Academy, and AFV Club British armor. Already told my daughter about the Grant and Matilda, now let's see if she listens.

The only addition would be a Firefly ( the only good Sherman !) with vinyl tracks.
