Hobby Boss is finally close to releasing a few kits in 1/48th. The T-34/76 (1942) will be out in Japan in the 1st week of August.

The T-34s look nice, but the Shermans have some issues (surprise!). Look at the mishapen hull on the M4A1.

Here is a link to Hobby Boss' site where you can see them all for yourselves.

Problems or not, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on some of these

When I was in my LHS the other day I saw several Trumpeter boxed 1/48 kits. This is the first time I had seen any Trump 1/48.
