Some very appealing items that either aren't available at all or only in resin conversions, etc. Bravo!

I'd like to see more unusual 1/35 scale stuff from IBG- Their new 1/35 Italian Truck for instance, opens up a lot of new possibilities! I'd like to see them do some 1/35 American vehicles in kit form that haven't been done in plastic yet- For example, a Mack No. Of course there was Mike 165th's Mack No, but that was a beautifully done scratch-built effort on his part...

I can't wait for the Finnish AA gun.

Got that right! There's quite a few items offered here that I'd like to see in 1/35 where they'd be a lot more useful than one-offs and speculation offerings. I'm kind of tired of July 1945 being extended to sometime '47.

Wrong scale for me
That Landswerk L-60 chassis would be really useful.
I can always hope for a 1/35 version ....

Some of this looks great. Hopefully the tracks and tyres (as appropriate) are up to scratch on these new kits, as bothe have sometimes been a problem on IBG's small scale kits, in terms of either accuracy or buildability. Openable hatches on the tanks would be a bonus too.

To help with the many Turans I've been building I bought the Hungarian Armored Forces book by Peter Mujzer, it has many photos of the Nimrod SP AA gun, which I really like the look of, and was wondering if there might be a kit of it - and here we are. It's a lengthened Toldi chassis with an extra wheel.

I got my hopes up for nothing. I realized these are 1/72 offerings. Maybe they will release them in 1/35 also. I have the Hobbyboss Nimrod...Maybe Hobbyboss will release the Finnish version.
