My Armor Wishlist Item

All new 1/35 scale M-18 Hellcat, like to see Tamiya or Asuka tackle it.

Always liked the M-7 Priest after seen some in a parade as a kid.

I normallly build U.S.A.F. Security Police armor, but there were not many types used since the beginning fo the A.F.

If you get to soft skins, from the VIetnam era woiuld be the:

CJ-5 jeep

M-35 2 1/2 ton

M-151 jeep (new)

M-715 weapons truck This has only been done in a 1/72 version and needs to come out larger.

I know Tamiya has one and it is a pretty well regarded kit but I would love to see Dragon do a dad gum Wespe! They have all of the basics like hull and main gun from various kits, just bring them together!!!

Are you aware that Dragon makes two diffrent versions of Priests nice kits too.

Has anyone ever done an M2 or M2A1 US Medium tank?

Very surprised they haven’t yet. I have a Tamiya kit with AM tracks in my stash. I will pass on a Dragon version, but would be interested in seeing one.

I’d like a Tamiya Crusader Mk II or III. Italeri’s version is decent, but pretty dated.

The M2A1 has been released in resin only. I can see this as a possible release since oddball US stuff has appeared like the M6 and T28. The M2/M2A1 have some odd parts however – such as a 13 tooth asymmetrical drive sprocket and very unique VVS units and a narrower track link. I’ve done a lot study on this in consideration of doing my own. That drive sprocket is holding me back though.

I mention it, because I can’t think of much available from the interwar period. WWII is well represented, and WWI has finally recieved attention.

I’m willing to bet that as soon as the WWI subjects have been exhausted we’ll start seeing more interwar stuff.

Actually, no. I haven’t been keeping up on releaases lately because of funds problems and our hobby shop doesn’t always get the most current kits. It just hasn’t been that much of a priority for them, strange as it seems. They have one heck of a R.R. and camera area though.

I guess there’s a few things here and there I’d like to see but so much new stuff has been coming out recently I can’t build but a fraction of what I’ve got…

How about ww2 & post war AFV’s in 1:48 scale
