OK, I'll bite. Just what do you think is *going* to happen as a result of re-animating this thread? Are you hoping more people post that they've seen nothing definite?

Quoted TextQuoted TextQuoted TextQuoted TextThank you Stephane and Julian for the only useful “non-snarky” replies. So if August is the expected release date from their FB page (I don’t do FB), I guess we’ll expect to see it in the States sometime before Xmas 2019. At least that’s something to look forward to.

I like the fact it's a Desert Storm version - this gives the Tamiya Nam version a good market as well as their own.
RFM Sheridan is supposed to do either one
Glt
That means I get to build TWO of them!!! In 2024...
Would that be before or after building the M8 HMC?
Curious mind wants to know ....

I'm looking for an answer, which it appears I've gotten-- from Stephane an Julian above, who say they have seen the RFM FB announcement that the kit will be released in August.
The Bronco M19 was another kit that came and went, and I was not able to get one (try and get one now in fact). I finally did manage to get one, but it took extraordinary effort.
And yes, I'll "bump" the thread in order to maybe, just possibly, gain the attention of someone with more recent knowledge of the subject. Almost universally, there will be a response from somewhere in the world from a person with that bit of information that can inspire me to keep waiting or to move along.
Anyone with access to the internet has by this time already decided whether to utilize FB or not; lots of opportunity for good as well as not-so-good stuff from there. I don't judge anyone by whether they use it or not.

In other words, not much more than you had before, an announcement.
Instead of asking everyone to do your search work for you which will stop getting results sooner rather than later, you ought to just join Facebook. You don't need to give them much, and what you do give can be fake, like a birthday off by a year and a month. (They just want to make sure you are over 18/21.) Then you can follow all the companies you like and get the news you want, without looking like an ostrich with his head in the sand but always with a hand (wing?) out begging others. I joined after a long resistance and have had no problems. There are several model related groups I've joined and they generally keep things close to the topic.
It does take some self-control, such as not accepting friend requests (to avoid getting bombarded with all your "friend's" stupid posts and comments) and not reacting to the idiotic, incendiary, crap that you read. Most people can't exercise even that minimum amount of self-discipline, so if you recognize that in yourself, you are right to stay away.

What?!? There are 25+ for sale on Ebay, ranging from $49 to $84. Scalehobbyist has them in stock, as does Lengends Toys and Hobbies.
Lemme guess, in addition to Facebook, you don't "do" Ebay, you don't "do" foreign sales, you don't "do" online US shops, you don't "do" paypal, and you don't "do" google. Under those conditions, yeah, I guess it would take extraordinary effort to find one.
Your troubles are of your own making. Try as one might, it's hard to be sympathetic.

Squadron's web page must be broken. Will not let me add to cart to pre-order.
Anyone know if they are on pre-order with anyone else.
