Just posted, one of the last in the reports from this years Nuremberg Trade Fair. The subject of this one is what we can (more or less) expect from the Chinese manufacturer Trumpeter. Plenty of images including some of the new 1/16th scale M16. The report can be seen:

There are so many cool new things! I do not know where to begin.

The "Grille II" and the "Dicker max" are both definently on the shopping list. The BMP 3 is a very nice addition as well.

Don't get me started on the 1/16 vehicles. They are just beautiful. I had never imagined that somebody would make a modern highly detailed kit of the King Tiger with a complete interior!

Thanks for the update even though some of the things had been announced earlier.

The 1/16 King Tiger is a must have
Everything on the bench at the time of release will be swept aside to make room for that beauty :-) :-) :-) :-)

All I can say is wow, I need another job to pay for all these new kits that I want, the Grille II, the Grasshopper, the two howitzers and not forgetting the two parts of the Armoured train, I can only hope they release a full BP-42/44 standard train, will save me scratchbuilding so much....
