You don’t have to worry about rent

It’s pretty standard in the industry. When I used to work for Big Evil Corp., their lead time was around 2yrs which is why they didn’t like the designers talking about upcoming stuff, mainly as the upcoming stuff was distant memory for them! That said, from what I heard blood bowl was done in 6months but the model quality shows the rush..

DD Sherman needs modifications to the lower hull, so it’s not an easy a job as it sounds.

Plus they were on M4A1 and M4A4, neither of which are produced yet.

Would be so cool though.

Yeah, it’s usually a year from when they announce/show the initial line drawings.

I’m seeing a lot of people take specialised command units like this for tank platoons at my event. I guess it’s a cheaper option.

Oh nice.

Will the resin kits be following the same release schedules as the tank kits (Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4)?

Would like to see some dozer blades too

I don’t like metal figures, however I’ll comprimise for US infantry in this scale!

They’re repurposed. Not direct copies, but the 3d renders will be the same.

Yep, that was defiantly an A2 large Hatch stuck in the mud!

It must have been the 76 that they didn’t get the A2 of.

I thought that the marines only got the small hatch ones (because they were desperate for any Sherman) and changed across to the M4A3 large hatchbokce it was available in numbers?

Getting rather excited about these announcements. Could see the marine jeep crew and the deuce passengers on the pics they put up on Facebook. Can’t see what the others are but here’s hoping for tanks crews.

Also very much looking forward to what I think will be announced next. Might be a rather expensive quarter for me!

Oh, it might be a large hatch, 76mm kit with the HVSS sprue like the M4A3E8 kit

I can't wait for the M4A1 to be released. If you haven't gotten too far along into the process of mold making, please include the small hatched direct vision cast hull along with the later small hatched cast hull with the direct vision ports eliminated. It would be great to  have a choice of hulls,especially with the three piece transmission cover and the earlier M3 suspension. A plastic M7 and a M3 Lee and Grant will be a more than welcome addition to your product line (at least to me,if not more).

A 75mm box set with small and large hatches and a 76mm box set with  large hatches would be awesome.

I’d also throw the Thai-Franco war and the Philippines invasion in there as well.

So 3 more nations for early war;

Thailand
Philippines
United States
