Gusthebus,

This what my contact at Unimax told me:

"Our production forecast for Bravo Team 1:18 Tiger will not be available in Target in Spring season, but it will be back again by 2008 Fall season. All other items in Bravo Team will be carried forward in Spring season and also for Fall 2008. Also we are going to have Stryker and M16 Multiple Gun Motor in next Fall in Target Stores."
The sign of a great model is that one’s eye is not drawn to any one feature, yet one can study it for hours and continually find something new.

another M16 is such a shame...A Sherman and a Tiger I understand, but a MGC is just too particular to be re-done in 1:18.

Agreed, and given the trend of the previous FOV 1:18 releases, the M-16 will look decent, but have far less overall detail than the 21c version. A Stug, M-5 Stuart, or T-34 would have been much better choices in my opinion :wink:

sure but its a cheap halftrack for our endless supply lines.... And I am so ready for a T-34 too - but some smaller vehicles would make me happy.

Bring it on.

It's long overdue in my opinion, but sadly I doubt we'll see one anytime soon. :cry:

Hell I'd love a Tiger I maybe FOV should look into makeing a few...................more! :P
A T-34 would be great and how about a Jagdpanther seems 21st doesn't want to make one for some reason.
