Academy has announced a new M36 from the Battle of The Bulge
Probably based on their good M36 kit, now they are preparing a special edition of the M36/M36B2 specific for the Battle of The Bulge.

[email protected] Interesting, considering there were no M36's used in the Battle of the Bulge. There were a few M10's, and maybe even fewer M18's. gary

I've been waiting for this kit to come back. I've read plenty of accounts of how tank destroyers were used in the Battle of the Bulge because they were often the only armor available.

One actually was credited with destroying a Tiger II in the Bastone/St Vith area. While not as common as the M10's they were there. Tks, Randy

Nice to know. Does anyone know if the kit comes wit an interior similar to that offered in their older kit? I thought that it was a nice touch, especially on an open-topped AFV.

Probably not, but if you must put crosses on allied armor a few were used in war movies as German tanks.
