"Yawn.. Wake me up when they realise modellers want something other than modern Americans." Are you kidding me..??!!! You mean there aren't ENOUGH Panzer's out there right now...??!! If we are talkin "fiction" even though there was a prototype I wanna see a XM800...now THAT would be something to "Crow" about..! ;-) thehermit

No, I'm being deathly serious. While America is the most popular nationality for 21st century modelling they still only have a small share of market and many modellers have never built more than one or two kits for the subject group, let alone are dedicated enough to be interested in ridiculously specific items like used shot shells or complete fabrication like this gunbot here. I find it extra ironic that neither you or LR are even American.

I can't argue with that they have lots of American stuff, but didn't they just put out a bunch of SA-80 variants?. I'd love to see more H&K, FN, AK's, etc. Give me more modern whatever. I'm sick of all the WWII stuff in infinite variation. I like LR's offerings, they allow you to model very specific setups, but I've found them to be very expensive to build those specific setups. You may need to combine several kits to get all the parts you need.

I's also like to see more fictional, near-future stuff.

Hmmm... And it always struck me that WWII German was the most popular for modelling....

That Fennek looks awesome kitted with the RWS! I can imagine it as a mini ALIENS APC esp if the gun slid down the back! Secutor II and RCWS are awesome, I plan to double mini gun my Secutor for sure, maybe a few missiles too!

Thanks Bob and I do like that idea....might have to do another one now...
