Tamiya's M106A1 4.2" mortar carrier (Four Duece) into an M1064 or M1064A3 120mm mortar carrier. Same with the M577 into an M577A2 or M1068 SICPS. And how about giving us former red over white troopers some Cav rides? Would it kill anyone to toss in the parts to make the M3A1, M3A2 or M3A2ODS along with the infantry Bradley variants?
While we're at it, about the old Tamiya M551 Sheridan, we need the M551A1TTS Sheridan as seen in ODS.

Mr Tamiya, could you please retool, NOT reissue, the following?
1. M3 Half-Track, re-tooled as a M3A1, not the unmade A2 2. M3 Lee 3. Grant 4. Matilda 5. M4 Jumbo 6. M4A3E8 7. M16 Quad .50 Half-Track 8. M21 81mm Half-Track 9. Six Pounder, while you're at it how about making a kit to make the 57mm as well? 10. M24 Chafee
If you could just take these old kits and re-tool them to be as good as the re-tooled Jeep we all appreciate it.

I agree with the SdKfz7 range should be in perment production well it can only be a few months until it's back out as the jeep was only OOP for about 3.5-4 years so cant be to far off! what does surprise me is that by the looks of it they want to go down the 1/48 scale road surely it'd cost less to to a good re-tool than a whole new 1/48 which only really appels to wingy builders
