For all you M4 fans out there, Perths site has an announcement from Academy for a 1/35 scale M4A3 HVSS 105mm w/dozer blade. The initial publicity shots look nice.Should look good next to Dragons M4A3 HVSS POA-CWS-H5 in the Korean War collection shelf. Oh this Christmas is gonna be rough on the budget… half tracks, Shermans…
Oh my my my!!!
When will I ever get to the German stuff I got stashed?!?!?
Another Sherman?! (Grumble Grumble) Not to mention Dragon set to release another. So much neglected stuff out there still.
It’s more of an economic move. They already have 80-90% of the base kit pieces in their inventory. All they do is chuck an other small sub-sprue inside, add new decals and a new box and Presto! a whole new kit for folks to spend money on.
Much like Hasegawa doing up new box-art, adding new decals, and calling it a whole new kit.
This is good news. I’m glad to see another Sherman kit. Although I would like to see more modern armor or some British armored cars.
I wish this would have come out about two weeks ago.
Ive got a Tamiya 1/35 scale 105mm Sherman and a Verlinden Sherman dozer blade resin and photo-etch kit sitting on my shelf. Every now and then Ill take it all out of the boxes and try to figure out my plan of attack.
The dozer blade kits looks fairley complicated- guess Ill try the new kit if Im not happy how this build turns out.
OK, make that 2 new M4A3 kits[:O]!!! Today, Dragon also shows a new upcoming release of a M4A3 HVSS 105mm. Now if someone would just do a DD M4A1 and initial production M4A1…
