A very unusual release has been announced thru DragonUSA.
DRA 6378 - US Army Tank Riders 1944-45

This, four-figure set will be getting produced to GenII standards and features Late-War U.S. infantry on the back of a vehicle as Tank-Riders. Going by the image (which is all we have at the moment) the figures are (nice change this) wearing the M-1943 Field Jacket rather than the usual uniform which should give some possibilities beyond WWii up to Korea...

More details as they're announced...

I will buy this set. I wish DML would offer the weapons and accessories as a separate kit. I would buy a couple of those as well. The Gen II details are amazing.

There is also the possibility that these figs can be posed sitting on the ground rather than on the back of a tank.

I agree with a lot of the comments here, 'It's about time we have a set like this!' I too will need 2, 3, or more sets.
