Your next British tank... which one?

Good idea Ripley.

The Bofors turret would make a great plastic kit, the tractor a resin add on.

+1 on Ripley's idea. Not sure whether there's a Centaur variant possible on a basic Crusader hull also or whether that's not viable, given the vehicle differences.

Sorry to say I don't think the answer to your question is a Comet, although doubtless that choice will have some fans. A Lee/Grant, Churchill, Matilda or Cromwell all better in my view. I accept there are some plastics of some of these other vehicles out there but I think we've got to the point where we simply expect the Rubicon version to be better than the competition and you do not disappoint

The Comet is old news, as it is off and running.

yes, indeed UVS, I knew about it, hence apology for being negative. sloppy phrasing on my part ...

Thanks for the input... we will do some research on the Valentine to see which variant(s) can be included in a single kit.

What's your view on which Valentine variant(s) you want us to do?

I'd like to address this.  I think the kit should include parts for a Mark II and/or Mark III (with sand shields, fuel tank etc), and a Mark IX.  This would give you a common Desert War version and a (useful) version used by the Red Army.  It might also be possible to squeeze in the parts for a Bishop (it's a horrible looking vehicle and a mediocre SP gun, but it would be a nice option to include).  Once the chassis is done, you could also do the Archer, which would (I suspect) be reasonably popular.

How about  Rubicon expand on a tank they already have ? Here's 3 vehicles based on the Crusader hull .





If Rubicon decide to release a 17 Pdr than the Tractor kit  should be a given . If they release a 40mm Bofors than the AA turret could be released as an expansion kit . The ARV parts could be released as a plastic blister pack

I'm having a fat kid on cake moment!  yes, yes and thrice yes.  these would be great!

All your new plans and new kits Rubicon Models are great, and thank you for them.
I only wanted to point out that there is very little if any 1/56 plastic armoured cars and we need them
I've seen you are already working on Staghound, and that's fantastic!
AEC, Humber, Daimler, Daimler Dingo would be great addition also.

From Tanks department I miss Grant/Lee very much.
