The Miniart T-54B is a must get, and the Dragon M48 Blazer looks better than the last pictures I saw. The Urdan cupola doesn't look too bad.

I wonder what are those gray primed figures at the bottom right corner of the Hobbyfan HF083 airboat photo, and what is that grassy arch behind them supposed to be or represent?

The figure no idea,perhaps some IDF?...the green arch is a bunker for aircraft

HobbyBoss did a massive mistake with teh cargo bed seats. Bundeswehr uses benches that are fixed in the middle of the cargo bed, soldiers facing outwards. AM industry will be happy.

I see the Dragon poster for the Six Day War, I would love to do the Syrian T-34/85, and the PZ IVH. They already have the kits, and one is German, so they may finally have a release that's not German that shouldn't be too screwed up, although one started as a German tank! (Although they listed the PZ IVH as a PZ IIIH! HEAD SLAP...DOOOH!)
