By the time the US adopted the NATO 3-color camouflage pattern, the Sheridan existed only with the 82nd Airborne Division (no winter camo used in the deep South) and US agressor forces (OPFOR) at places like the NTC at Ft. Irwin, CA (no winter camo used in the Mojave Desert).what colors are sheridans nato camouflage and winter camouflage. i cant find any clear photo.

I saw it for sale in Orillia Ontario last week for like 32 bucks or something.
I thought it was released already.

I've only seen the box art but it looks like it is production version rather than the test version Tamiya put out. I was able to scratch my old Tamiya into a decent "Nam version whcih is what the Academy kit looks like. Don't think it's made it's way over here yet.

Hmm is Keith's the place that was on Yonge Street way up north of the 401?
*edit nm I looked at the web site and it is
I remember finding this place on a business trip to Toronto in the late 80s and spending hours in there during my week long trips.
Thanks for the pointers I think I will be picking up one of these fairly soon.

Greatmodels.com has it as a pre-ordering item. It will probably come out in June.

I've checked Squadron and Greatmodels and GM is the only one I have found that is at least showing it as a future release.,and is taking pre-orders. Mine is ordered.

Keith is at 5025, Yonge st. IIRC.. it´s located at North York Center train station.
You just need to get to cross the road after leaving the station.

Saw it in my LHS this morning. Since I live in the boondocks as regards getting much of anything slightly unusual, it should be available everywhere by now!
