Poll: Choose the one you want most
This poll will run until September 25th and is only for the type of ground vehicle you want most. I only put in ground vehicles that were picked twice or more, so to narrow it down to one piece I will make. Once this is done I’ll place up another for exact version/variation of the ground vehicle chosen. If you have anything that you would like to add as in version/variation please post them. I would like to hear any and all ideas, which I’ll add in to the next poll. If any question also please ask. Thank you guys for the help with this.

The T-34 is a tough one to pin down a model. During WW2, every Russian tank factory produceing the T-34 produced a slightly different T-34, from every other tank factory. What worked in one factory didn't work in others.
Models started in 1940, changes made in 1941,1942,1943 and then the same chasis was used for the T-34-85, another great tank......basically the same tank but with the 85mm gun.
Any version would be great, the T-34 was a simple but a great tank.
A CCKW would be a close 2nd place for me, with the short bed. Variations could have the ring mounted .50 cal or even the Number Seven Wrecker setup in the bed..... The mind bogles.

Just a pic showing my open cab CCKW with the short body, and the Number Seven Wrecker Set.

Voted for the Duece
Would have voted for the T-34 but it would need crew/infantry etc.. to be fun.
The Stuart and krad have already been done by 21st Century so ya never know if/when they might pop out a 1/18 version.
Pershing might be interesting with the King tiger coming out.

>>>> T-34 <<<<
I choose the T-34/76 ,.. because this was the first type introduced onto the battlefield and it scared the hell out of the Germans when it appeared. I favor the one w/ [hex turret]. Moreover,.. the T-34/85 was mid-late war and ,.. even though produced on the same chassis ,.. is such an ugly tank IMO. ..... Besides ,.. I think we'll see the others on this list eventually,.. Save the "Challenger".

<<<< T-34 >>>>
Tanks ! .. "mamaw". .. I would like to add ,.. if you don't mind ,.. that the T-34/76 w/ [hex-turret] greatly influenced the design and production of the "Panther".

No - I know your favorite is the Porsche turret, but I would prefer the more common Henschel turret.

I'd like to see the M3 Stu..
As they can sell repaints in USA, USMC, and 8th Army.
But something tells me T34 makes the MOST business sense, as they can re-use the chassis between T34/76 (several diff turrets too!), T34/85, SU85, SU122, SU100 - that's 5 potential sales from one base chassis.
Not to mention re-paints, green, green/brown, winter cammo, modern desert for T34/85 used in Mid-East.
Lottsa sales potential there.

I voted for the T-34.
