Coming this December is an M18 Hellcat, a new addition to the growing list of vehicles under the Italeri and Warlord Games collaboration.
Having the official designation of 76mm Gun Motor Carriage M18, the Hellcat was a World War II American tank destroyer used in both European and Pacific theaters of operation, and even up to the Korean War. It was the fastest American tracked armored vehicle only eclipsed upon the arrival of the turboshaft-powered M1 Abrams. Compared to other American tank destroyers of its time, the M18 Hellcat racked a higher kill to loss ratio, thus making it the most effective American tank destroyer fielded in World War II.

The Italeri M18 Hellcat (#15762) comes as an easy-to-assemble kit, and based on 100% new molds. It includes 2 figures and decals for 3 versions.

*Sees Hellcat, instantly excited!.... ...notices it is in wargaming scale*. Damn Really hoping someone can do a better 1/35 rendition than the Academy/AFV club offering

For a war game kit that is very nice. Pity it's not even 1/72.

Darn it! Not 1/72...

Kind of a specialized scale. It has a purpose (wargaming) but that is little consolation for those looking for a kit in a more accepted scale (like 1/35!)
