Nice, I have been on the fence about doing IDF armor, but this one might put me over the edge.

With these two recent IDF boxings showing dragon returned to their M2/M3 line, hopefully this means there is still a chance for them to finally do the M15 CGMC.

Got that right! I can't keep up with all the new releases. Already got rid of over 200 1/35 kits, still got over 125 in the stash. My wallet stills screams at me to stop, but my 1/35 addiction keeps coughing up the almighty dollar. I'm 62, and unless some time capsule guru can keep me alive for another 62, then I'll never get to finish what I've got let alone trying to stop the drunken debauchery and unrestrained, uninhibited abandoned sense of mortality only to continue my kit binge buying!

DML/Dragon has done a good portion of all the U.S. half tracks. How's about an SU-57?

Never mind the ATGM tanks, when's the the basic M5 halftrack coming? [the 3D printed conversion is super overpriced
