Does anyone know if there is an company that has the intention of releasing an M-1070 HETS in the near future ?
Perhaps Trumpeter since they have already released the Faun Franziska..
I know Accurate Armour has one but their price is too high !!

It has been rumored that Trumpeter would be releasing one, but I haven't heard anything about it in a while.

Yes, there are rumors that Trumpeter has looked into making a M1070 HET, but there has been no announcement from them. Heck, they have not even released the MAZ they have had ont he book for almost 2 years...

Hobby Boss have a 1/72 one listed. It would surely be a nice looking model and pretty big.

Accurate Armour is making it.
You can have the M1070 with and without the M1000 semi-trailer and the M1070F again with and without the GTS100/7 trailer.

Richard, "bankmannl" mentioned that in the initial post. The real question asked was if anyone will be making an injection molded kit. That way we can avoid dropping $500+ on the AA resin kit. (which many of us won't do anyway)
