Title: Arab-Israeli Wars
Post by: Art A on February 11, 2015, 09:12:51 am

Would like to see you produce plastic armor kits for the various countries involved in this theater of conflict between 1948 to 1982.

The armor from the earlier conflicts were recycled/modified WWII or Cold War designs. In particular, I would be glad to see you produce the Israeli M51, Centurion, or the Soviet JS, SU and T-34+ variants modified by the Arab nations. 

Some companies already produce AIW armor kits in 1/100 scale and I hope that it will only be a matter of time before we also see plastic 1/56 scale armor for this theater.

There are many companys from Company B states side to Empress over here that do resin 1/56, why should plastic only be for 1/72 scale. I  can see a definite market but time will tell.
Cheers

There is a market for these vehicles. Chieftan and Sloppy Jalopy both  make Cold War and Middle Eastern vehicles in 1/56.

I would  agree  that  there  is  a market  for  the  vehicles. Especially  since there  are  a lot  of  28mm  figures coming  out  for the  Arab-Israeli War and Cold Wars.
