Small Scale Military Headquarters

I spoke last night with the owner of Collectible Kingdom and he says the halftracks will be shipping next week. This makes sense as ToyFed says late January for the hanomag.
He only lists the series 2 German Beige Camo on his site, but he also mentioned U.S. (I assume it too would be the 2d version, BoB scheme).
I'm glad they're giving us another shot at the Eastern Front scheme halftrack like they did with the Tigers.

i didn't even know they were going to be re-released. I wonder if they'll be diecast?

Hmmm....I had passed on this one when it was out before, but I may have to rethink that.

YeeeHaaaww!! Another reason I love this forum. I almost bought one
this week on ebay for $80.00!!! Now I can wait!

I'll second that! I've been tracking these on ebay for awhile and sure am happy to see a re-release. But is the picture they have at Toy Federation the right one? It looks like the dark grey version with the yellowish camo pattern, but I thought the Eastern Front version was yellowish with green and red camo patterns? The latter is the one I still need.

They have the wrong picture up at ToyFed. I know for a while they qualified the pic by saying the Eastern Front version, don't know if they still do. Anyone know someone there who can add to this discussion?

is there any more news on this? i too would like to get one. i dont remember seeing these when they were released? did they go to TRU's or just hobby stores? i remeber the original paint scheme was at TRUs...i shoulda just picked another one of those up when it went on clearance and winterized it..

even Toy Fed says on their site it was expected late Jan...it's almost march

I never saw them at tru and thought they were small retailer only but someone told me they once saw a BoB M3A3 at tru.....I doubt it....
Anyway, they were boxed in new packaging at the Toy Fair so they are indeed coming. When they will actually show is anybody's guess, but I suspect a situation like the Dodge - one day just in stock.

The BoB M3 was for sure at TRU. I did see them at a TRU away from Dover. IIRC we were told at the Toy Fair that even the M-41 was going to be re-released. Don't ask!

From what I was told, Walmart is going to give a much larger area for XD/32x stuff in the future than I thought. If you go to the 21st site and find the picture of the layout showing figures, playsets and vehicles, you will see what digger and I were told as a possible layout. It's quite large! Again, it seems that anyting is possible at this point.

The BoB US Halftrack, Eastern Cammo SDK 251, and the Winter M-41 are still around, depending on where you look. The were released to the small retailers not that long ago. The Hobbytown store in Fresno, for example, still has one of the SDK 251s, had the US Halftrack, and still has a couple of the Winter M-41s.

It would rock of WM got a diecast M-41 and Halftracks!

Does that mean that these will show up at Wal-Mart? or only small retailers? Has anyone seen any Tiger tanks at Wal-Mart lately....I missed out!

thanks, but Buena Park is too far from where I live. Our Wal-Marts don't have any cool stuff right now.
