I haven't been on here very long so excuse me if this is not put right. I have been trying to model my era for a long time and there are finally getting kits out of VN. I have waited for M37s and Rome Plows forever and they are always promised. Please put these and other VN kits out before we are gone as the small museums need them for their displays. Any engineer equipment would be great.
Thanks, Wayne

Yes I saw that Frenchy and am hopeful. Also, since they have come out with the WW2 dozers and the modern Doobi, I'm hoping for the rome plow. I trained on them, but mostly ran the standard D7s. There are any number of unique construction machines that would be great in dioramas. Wayne

An M8 dozer kit for the M48 would be a welcome addition.....

Yes, retired and on a fixed income, so I have to watch my coin. Have seen these and trying to work 1 or 2 in somewhere down the line. Wayne

Not sure why, this doesn't show up when I look at forums.

Holy Crap, I love that LARC! No idea there was one out there. I know what I'm getting for my birthday
