Most vehicles also end up in museums with their post-war adjustments. The G13 from Switserland is such an example. You have to strip it down to a regular Hetzer again.

I would start with a British one. For the Germans you already have the Opel Blitz, for the Americans the GMC and for the Russians the Studebaker.

WLG/Italeri's next one is indeed a m3 stuart , however there is a distinct difference between an early stuart like the m3a1 and the m3a3.

also for the M3 scout car many parts of the M3/M3A1 box can be recuperated.

Cool !

88 and Sdkfz 7 next ?

Steve, I don't think these will come soon. the 37mm and 75mm gun projects are being considered because a large part of the gun is/will be available anyway through the 250/251 projects, this means just the wheels and trails would have to be made. This is not so for the 88mm or sdkfz 7. (Though I would like to see these as well)

An M3 Grant / M3 Lee/M31 ARV would be so nice.

Italeri had the M8/M20 in their preview for 2015 releases in Nürenberg already. Even before Rubicon announced theirs.

There are more on sprue C. Only sprue A is for both boxes. B and C come depending on wether you bought the M5/M8 or the M5/Recce version.

based on the sdkfz 10, so maybe also a possible kit some day, either as artillery tower or as sdkfz 10/4 or 10/5 AA versions

While it seems that some vehicles of Rubicon and Warlord/Italery may look the same it's not really the case.
The tiger of Rubicon has the early /mid and late variant, the Warlord/Italery one has zimmerit.
Their T34/76 has different turrets from the W/I one, the M3 halftrack comes with covers while the Warlord one doens't.
The German sdkfz 251 is a c-variant while the one from Rubicon will be the D-variant etc. I think there are sufficient differences to keep thing interesting enough to buy either.

Some firms like sandsmodels are already picking up on after market changes, so you can build some variations with a minor extra investment.
I"m sure Shaun can help you once the vehicle is out.

Guys,

I love your stuff and yes I also buy other tanks wether they would be resin or plastic. Even if the vehicles are (more or less) the same.
The different approach of each company is exciting for me as a modeller and my armies are always in need of extra material.
At our club we're having somewhat of an arms-race going on and our games become larger and larger. So keep them coming.
