Crusaders in 48th scale!!! ..... a nice change of direction. Hopefully, Tamiya will repeat its dual scale release, similar to what they did with the Stug IIIB.

I agree Frank.

Very interested in the Crusaders. Can't have enough Brit subjects.

Not that I have any direct knowledge, but I doubt it. After all, we are still waiting for the Tamiya 1/35th M4A1 and M10 that some said might follow the 1/48th releases. It seems to me that Tamiya has pretty much closed out new releases in 1/35th, after all we have had what, one or two this year? My guess is that if we want Crusaders, the Matilda, whatever in 135th, we have to hope that DML Trumpeter or Academy get on board.
