Looks that the complains on their prev. news clip on this site speed up the release of the next clip.
Now start to count the time till the next 2-3 other companies will jump inn.

So, if they're reading, I wonder if they might send Nick Turner a free sample for guessing exactly right with his first attempt?!

Personally, I like vehicles that saw actual service in WW2 better. Still, I have plenty of other Miniart vehicles I need to catch up on building.
Old model kits never die. They just get reboxed under another label.

Trumpeter has already announced (it's in their catalogue, page 49, item 09505) the SU-101 (even if they labelled it SU-100) which used many parts of the T-44 chassis.

That's AWESOME!!!!! now those of you who are not that interested in the T-44, do not have to listen to "I wish it was a T-44" every time there is a new announcement. (I know there will always be the "I wishes" but this eliminates a major one)

Sorry I hit the enter button too soon! It seems that their products are released more than a year after they are announced.

I know, it's a nuisance, BUT, if I know about it a year or more in advance I might not go off and buy an expensive resin kit
looking at the bright side of the whole thing ...
