I'm anxious to see if anyone has their new M60A1 yet.

I've been dealing with a sick kido in the hospital for a few weeks now so funds aren't there for me to get one right now - wanted to enjoy it vicariously through your builds.

I'm really excited about this kit, the interior details, engine grills and new stuff. The old dinasaur is my favorite subject!

I don't think it's even reached retailers outside Taiwan yet. I have two on preorder but luckymodel said it would be months before i get them.

Oh No! What should I do with my old Tamiya kit?

It only cost me $5 - how could I resist?

Maybe a quick 'fun build' as an AMS 'cure'?

I'm wondering if AFV might continue with other vehicle based off this chassie ie; M728, M60A3, M60 AVLB, M60A2, M60 w/MICLIC. Just a thought.

They haven't announced anything, but I would say the odds are very good that other versions will be out. Especially Israeli versions, like they did with their Centurions.
