I'd like to see 21C make the previously announced Dodge 6X6 truck, plus the larger GMC 2 1/2 ton 6X6. We really need some US trucks!

You can do all kinds of stuff with the Sherman chassis - a later hull, prefereably with the 76mm turret (I can supply full details on request).

The previously announced M3 Grant would be nice, but especially - use those parts for an M7 "Priest" SP howitzer.

Give the Allies some more stuff - enough Panzers already!

I agree - more allied armor! We could use a British Churchill tank to go with the 32x British troops. I would say a Matilda, but FOV already has one.

Would somebody, anybody do an M-10 Wolverine, a Greyhound, a Priest, and a Hetzer!

Obviously we all agree on Troops! So 21st here is my wish list!

Two sets of Vermacht please, two sets of US minimum! Throw in the heavey weapons sets! We have seen the molds! Vermacht light infantry gun and mortor. Us anti tank gun and mortor teams!

The prime mover is prime for a mounted flakverling! What an easy do! Include a mounted Flak crew! Perhaps an Ammo Trolly?

How about a set ? Prime mover and 8.8 ? While Tanks sell, collectors need it all. This includes an Opel Blitz or a Krupp truck? Kabul wagon anyone?

How about SDKF variants? How easy would it be to do the 251/9? Mount the nebbelwuffer crates on the side and you have another version. or simply mount a flak gun? Radio Rack? You already have the frame do it like they did for real. Easy to bring to market!

On the US side a 76 mm HV Sherman. Another easy hit. You change the barrel? Whos in development over there? Again as stated above the hull is already there, Turn it into an M10, and an M7....... And get here with that CS version of the M18! As others have said the Deuce and 1/2 is a must have, a willies and a WC 3/4 ton? Then you can add a hard top and its an ambulance? Its called bang for the buck 21st! Why dont you have an M3/ M16 variant? Another simple add to an existing platform?

21st century had the markett cornered. There stuff was really the first and most affordable out there. I know they run into problems but hell learn from your past mistakes. I love the M113 Vietnam Vehicel but what the hell goes with it? A whole new line? 21st could have concentrated on one or two scales and simply killed. Instead they branched out all over into to many periods. Conqure WWII Europe first in your 1:32 and 1:18. Dragoon and others dominate the large dolls, and now FOV has come in and scooped up a big piece of your pie? Focus one front at a time. FOV has the lead in Modern let them fight on two fronts. Produce as much crap as King & Country in WWII europe keep it rolling then branch out.

Well sorry guys but I have always wondered why 21st does some of the things it does, great stuff great idea but poor execution. Sorry for the spelling was in a rush!

Great ideas, jrs!!

The two German halftracks can be modified. How about the panzerspawagens? Or those six-wheeled German armored cars?

I even forgot about the deuce and a halfs and the Grant/Lee.

Yes, where are those heavy weapon sets that we saw pics of on GP's site?!

We've seen new tank crewmen for the German tanks so someone is sculpting somewhere. No new crew for the U.S. tanks though.

I like the XD scale but I think that 1/32 is where it's at. Affordable, easy to store and a great scale to game with. I'd even buy into the 48th scale if there was more stuff being made.

Maybe since they're making XD marines and Japanese we might see them in 32X? Could you imagine?!?!

How about WWII bombers B17,B25,B24 or B26.

tmanthegreat: The Hobby Bunker in Waltham, Mass. (www.hobbybunker.com) sells a 1:32 Churchill and Cromwell made by a European company (maybe William Britain,but I'm not certain). They are made of a kind of crumbly material and have cast non-moving tracks and wheels, but are fairly realistic. Hobby Bunker also sells a 1:32 British Daimler Scout Car which they'll paint for you for a modest fee. Ask for their print catalogue. They have tons of stuff. P.O.C. is Matt.
Happy Hunting!

I like the 21st, cheaper, don't have to put together

T34/76, lots and lots of cheap T34/76

The blitz truck, and the 2 1/2 truck

1/32 stukas, the sky covered by stukas

and the kettenkrad

B-17 at 1:32? I thin that has more of a shot than any bomber in the 1:18 scale. I wouldn't mind a 1:32 B-26, B-25, B-17, B-24, and even on to things like a F-4 Phantom, A-1 Skyraider, F-18 Hornet, F-22 Raptor, etc.

Planes, planes and more planes!!!

olifant · Post by **olifant** » Wed Jan 26, 2005 9:18 pm

I agree with many of the suggestions. I would like to see some SP artillery from all nationalities. How about a Priest and a Hummel? What about some Russian assault guns? Wouldn't a Sherman calliope look stunning? More towed artillery would be appreciated; how about a Nebelwerfer unit with the ammo cart! More British armor would be nice but I think the Churchill is overdone in other scales by other companies. Numerically their various cruiser tanks carried the lion's share of the workload and I would like to see them done in 1/32 scale.

LWP · Post by **LWP** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 7:40 am

I too, would love to see a 76mm Sherman (not an E8), an M-10 Wolverine or M36 Jackson, and a Priest.

The Brits could use European theater troops, an M4 firefly and a Churchill or Comet. Maybe a 25pdr if you want to be ambitious.

A Hetzer would be something fresh in the German line.

Any of the heavy weapons teams would be nice.

Post by **aferguson** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 8:39 am

what is the definition of a 'heavy weapon'?

cruizin2000 · Post by **cruizin2000** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 11:18 am

A weapon that's heavy?

Wieslaw · Post by **Wieslaw** » Wed Mar 02, 2005 1:06 pm

I agree with LWP!
And that is my wish list. Maybe the Polish September 1939 Campaign weapons (7TP vs. Pz.I or II, P-11c vs. early version of Bf-109) would be interesting only for me, but the British or American ones with markings of the Polish Armed Forces - why not? I would like to get a Hurricane, a Spitfire or a Mustang from one of the Polish squadrons. I would like to get a Firefly or a Cromwell from the 1st Polish Armoured Division or a Polish Sherman III from the battle of Monte Cassino (and figures of the Polish soldiers too). Or one of two captured Panthers or a Hetzer used by Poles in the Warsaw Uprising 1944. Dear 21st CT and dear Forces of Valor - don't forget Poland!
Greetings from Rzeszow

Poles of the world unite!! Talk about an international forum! It's nice having you aboard Wieslaw. Maybe 21st will kick out some Poles of the 1st Polish Airborne Brigade at Arnhem, complete with General Sosabowski!

Yes, I second that...

krieglok · Post by **krieglok** » Fri Mar 04, 2005 1:40 am

We need a CCKW duece and a half, any german truck like the Blitz, a M37 US cargo truck for the Korean/ VN era, Dodge ambulance, Jap Zero, Spitfire and finally I WANT A 1/32 scale Grumman Avenger. I love that plane...

TJ

PS: Any of these in 1:18 other than the Spit and TBF, would be appeciated too...

WGP Klaus · Post by **WGP Klaus** » Fri Mar 04, 2005 6:10 am

It would be nice if they expanded on post WW2 pieces, having teased us with the release of the 32nd M113 , it would be nice to see any or all of the following:
Armor/Softskins: (not covered by FOV...as of yet! lol)
- M48
- Merkava
- T-80
- BTR 70 or BTR 80
- BMP1/2

Aircraft:
- Phantom
- A-4
- A-6 (could repaint to A-6E TRAM)
- Mig-15
- Mig-21
- F-14A/B/D anything tomcat!
- F-18C or D/E/F
- Mi-24 Hind
- AH-1S
- AH-1W
- CH-46/47
- CH53

I'd be happy with any of the items listed above!

tmanthegreat · Post by **tmanthegreat** » Fri Mar 04, 2005 11:40 am

You posted some interesting ideas for aircraft. Once 21st releases the new 1:18 aircraft they have planned for this year, we may very well see a MiG-15, F-86, F-104, and Avenger in the 1:32 scale next year. I'm frankly excited to see the new 32x P-47, P-40, and FW-190D9. Those were great 1:18 planes, so hopefully they'll make great 1:32 models - like their current ME-262.

BTW - we would be much more likely to see an F-14 Tomcat in 1:32 scale as opposed to 1:18!

olifant · Post by **olifant** » Sat Mar 05, 2005 5:00 am

IF we are talking airplanes, how about a P-39 or P-63 in Russian markings? This plane is just not done in any scales, and although it was not up to snuff as a fighter it did tremendous ATG work. How about a Rudel Stuka with the 37MM canons?
