I thought Orochi only did tracks! In any case, I always say the more the merrier

I only know of Riich and Bronco. I find it interesting though that the box art is similar to Meng's. This one caught me totally by surprise.

Well it looks like the result of all those wish lists posted on the net every few months. Several companies look on the same list and start to work on the kits with high hits. Than the info start to flow in, as well the rumors, and the competition who will hit the market first start. From one point it is good to have the competition for us the modelers, from other point sometimes it leads to cutting corners and rush the model out.

This competition is main reason why the companies dont post info and photos of the new kit in early stages, in which some possible errors can be found by the modelers that can be fixed before the release of the kit to the market.

Hello everyone !

Takom and Orochi seem to be Meng's subsidiaries. It seems to be so for many reasons. Like some others here, I suspect Takom's new Leo would share many parts with the one from Meng.

One more Bradley ? Hm, why not ! Let's just wait for a while and we'll see.

Cheers, Paul

Well, it is an M3, maybe it will have that much sought after back hatch with the periscopes?

The M3A3 will have the hatch you desire, sir. Apparently I helped with this thing and didn't even know it, if they're associated with Meng. Different interior as well.
These are indeed good times.

Awesome, another new Bradley. A proper M3A3 will be most welcomed. Any idea when it will be available?
