From the Italian Braille-Scale site http://www.unosettantadue.net/ this list has been published for what MAY be getting produced by DML in 2007:

DML-7239 1/72 Avenger + M1037
DML-7242 1/72 Brummbar Mid Production
DML-7245 1/72 M1045 + M1069
DML-7263 1/72 SdKfz 251/6 Ausf C Command Vehicle
DML-7272 1/72 M4A3E2 Sherman Jumbo Tank
DML-7278 1/72 Pz IV Ausf G Tank
DML-7279 1/72 Pz IV Ausf H Tank w/Armor
DML-7284 1/72 StuG III Ausf G Late Production 10.5cm
DML-7290 1/72 Pz III Ausf M/N Tank

I'll be trying to confirm (expand?) on this list in a couple of weeks when I speak to DML at Nuremburg...

Oh yes, add onto that list some Soviet subjects as well....

I'm looking forward to the M1037, M1045 and M1069. Jim, could you please ask Dragon why they chose no to produce or include any figures w/their 1/72 scale kits?

Typical !
I made mine out of the C with Wurfrahmen and a plain D.

And if they were to scale down the GenII fig sets to 72nd they'd sell more than a few sets!

cheers

Here here. I don't think that Dragon really cares about producing figures in 1/72 scale to sell as stand alone kits or with their armor kits. They will include figures w/some of their Dragon Armor sets though.

The M1045/M1069, are these the ambulance versions?

The M1069 should be a "tractor" for the 105 mm light gun. The M1045 has a TOW mounted. M1035 is an ambulance.

Thank goodness for AB Figures eh? Feel sorry for modelers of modern stuff in 72nd though due to lack of figures available.
