Re: What AFV Do You Want Next From Hobby Master?

Regarding WW2, many highly significant vehicles are yet to be released in 1/72:

- Germany -- Pz II, Pz III, Pz IV, Pz 38(t), Hetzer, Marder, SdKfz 250, SdKfz 11, Opel Blitz, Kübelwagen, Puma, SdKfz 222...
- Japan -- any would be welcomed
- Italy -- any would be welcomed
- USA -- Lee, Stuart, Hellcat, Chaffee, Half-track, Greyhound, White scout car, M12 gun motor carriage, Willys Jeep, Dodge trucks, GMC 2.5-ton truck...
- UK -- Matilda, Valentine, Crusader, Churchill, Bedford truck, Comet, Bren carrier, Grant, Humber/Daimler scout car...
- USSR -- T-28, T-26, BT-5 to 7, IS-2, late KV-1, Su-122, ZIS truck, T-35, BA armoured car series, T-70...
- France -- Any would be welcomed

So there's plenty of possibilities to choose from, and we armour buffs are always willing and able to provide HM intel in terms of blueprints, paint scheme profiles, etc., from our books and mags, aren't we?

A few of those you listed are available in 1:72: Stuart (corgi), M3 halftrack(Corgi, FOV), Greyhound(Corgi), Churchill(Matchbox, FOV), Grant(FOV), Su-122(FOV), Puma(Altaya)...you can see these and some others inlcuding some Italian etc. at Military Diecast 1/72. Still lots left, though, and the Altaya line still hasn't had an official US release.
