And 2014 continues the Golden Age of styrene AFV modeling!
Yes indeed, Panzer III fans will be well-served in '14 by addition of Ausf B, C, and D (the three pre-production series of "8-wheel - leaf-spring suspension" Pz. III made in 1937 - 8 before the 6-wheel torsion-bar suspension was finalized for production III - E). VERY COOL! And great news for both "Poland 1939" and "France 1940" fans, as these B, C, D went to war there.
Now for the Pz. III Ausf A (the "5-wheel" III)! With that, a guy could line up all of III history in modern 1/35 styrene kits along the shelf!
Some of those other offerings look pretty nice, too!
And MiniArt has done some very nice kits, so... I would expect that these new offerings could be pretty nice indeed!

Those 3 Mk IIIs are indeed welcome and have been high on my want list. I wish the new German crew shown with them had the early war uniforms, too.

I think that the A variant is not interesting for manufacturer because there is not another version!
