Will it be armor or have they announced everything for the 1/18th armor line?

I would like to see a completely new model instead of a modification of an existing mold.

new 1:18

Post by digger » Fri Jul 07, 2006 2:44 pm

OK, I sincerely doubt it is an A-10 after all the hinting by bbi on that front.
It seems some people will not be happy with anything but a KT but I could live without one (or with :D ). I would love to see some artillery which was much more relevant than the KT..either way "new model" is enough to have me plenty psyched. :P

Doesn't matter to me what it is, but I'm leaning more toward artillery or tank. :)
If it's all new, it's all good. Kevin.

I might be pinning my hopes up too high if I say King Tiger with interior. It also would be great if it was an M-5 Stuart, M-18, Jagdpanther... um I could go on wishing.

As long as it rolls on the ground, I'll say "Thank you 21C, veddy veddy much" :lol:

My guess is either a KT or an 88mm AA with companion big momma of a half-track. I can do either gladly.

Or else a M-7 Priest
Or a Sherman Firefly

Heck, I'll even like to see a plane for the propeller heads. Shows you what a sweetheart I am. Like maybe news about the phamtom Avenger. BCA has three set up for pre-order.....the Atlantic Avenger...the Lost Flight Avenger...and the Bunker Hill Avenger.....all by the way on permanent hold. I'll take two or all, and I'm not even a plane guy........ignore my earlier posts on the AT Me-262. :roll: That was a figment of your imagination, from me, the old fart ground guy......

Aw Hells Bells, I am up for anything. Though, I am intrigued by the wording of the announcement. It is a paraphrase from Shakespere's Scottish play. In particular, it is a line by one of the witches. Can anyone think of a vehichle with a witch or magic code name that might be a tie in?

The important part here is "This is a piece that many fans have requested"

What could it be?

My guess(s) are Koingstiger, ME-262, FW-190A, Macchi, or its just the finnished Avenger
