Mirror Models has sent Armorama news of two new releases that will be available from next week. One D7 kit gets winches for the recovery role, another gets full armour for work under fire.
Kit no. 35852 US Armoured Bulldozer - of the type used in the invasion of Normandy, and indeed the cover art depicts it on a beach next to a German fortification with a couple of striped Mustangs flying over head.

Kit no. 35853 US Army Recovery Tractor - this appears to be similar to the Military variant of the D7 7M Tractor kit but with the addition of winches on large mounts at both front and rear.

We're hoping to see some build images of these two kits in the next couple of weeks, as well as images of completed and painted examples. Libor also tells us that there will be further news shortly regarding crewmen for the D7.

I picked up the U.S. Armored Bulldozer kit.35852 today. This kit shares all of the other D7 kit sprues except, obviously, the armor plating parts sprue and blade/push arm parts. The Dozer blade, hydraulic cylinders, and push frame parts are all cast in light gray resin. Super clean with no bubbles (I haven't sanded and primed it yet). The push frame part is slightly warped probably because of the way all the Mirror Models kits are so tightly packed into their boxes. The i-sheets included indicate "Limited British edition contains a resin driver figure"
