A friend of mine (Digger) from the SSHQ forum sent me these pics and I thought I'd share with you w/ his comments..

I don't know what it new or old - I have more pics so if you want more of something I may be able to provide.
Also, the COOLEST thing at the show was the 1/72 RC tanks - a one-handed RC with no radio control, it had a motion sensor! They can shoot at each other and score hits! The hits add up for a kill after a few. They were unreal (heavy and detailed). Thought I had a pic of them but can't find it.
The new 1/32 tank riders are amazing, and the 1/72 figures are unbelievable. Both will make any non-unimax an instant fan I promise.

Very nice! i wonder how much those larger 1:72 sets will cost. They are in the same size box as the 1:72 helo.

I'm very intrigued about the RC. I have a Dragon RC tank, and am looking forward to playing with some accurate looking interactive tanks. Cats beware!

Is there a list of FOV 1:72 armor/dio future (2007) releases anywhere?

Or, can someone who has info from Toy Fair post a list of what they saw (regardless of whether it will be produced)?

(I resisted the 1:72 armor after over a year of looking at it EVERY time I went into a Target. A couple weeks ago, - having a couple $5 Target gift cards -I "caved" and bought a Tiger I and the SU -122. I am VERY impressed with the quality/price ratio on these.)

Thanks and thanks for posting the original pics/discussion.

(Trying "desperately" not to start another "collecting" obsession w/ 1:72 FOV Armor. "When are they going to do a Panther?????" "T-34/76???" "I've got to pick up that N. Africa British Grant".......)

Very exciting news. The interactive tanks are a must have.

Speaking of FOV armor, has anyone seen the Grant at Target? Or will it be in the next wave with the Tiger/Sherman repaints? I'm curious to see if Target will carry these larger box/figure sets.

Tankguy,
Hey there.

I seem to recall folks stating that the Grant doesn't land in the U.S. until this fall.

My local Hobby Shop (in the U.S.) has the Grant - but I've never seen it at a Target (or anywhere else). I've also seen it at online dealers.

Thanks for the pictures.

man that 1/72 Blackhawk looks good I can't wait to see it up close. It will probably cause me to sell off my Corgi version........

Does anybody weather their FOV diecast or they already look real by itself? cause i found that their modern stuff looks too clean.
