21c never made an M-60 (I assume you are referring to the tank). Unimax Forces of Valor did. The most modern 21c got in their 1:32 line was the M-41 Walker Bulldog and M-113 APC. 21c did make an M-48, but that was in 1:18 scale.

The M-60 is one of FOV's older pieces with quite a bit of metal in the construction and is heavy to the feel. Is yours in the desert tan or the cammo version?

:?: Maybe that's why no body else bid on it,Seller had it as "21st Century" so people just looking for FOV might have missed it.I just found it by the picture scrolling down so didn't really pay attention to the listing.

JKINZEL:

Are you aware your M60 is missing almost all of the reactive armor, the commander, stowage and some parts are broken off?

The seller says some "small parts" are missing, but the missing/broken parts would be a deal killer for me unless you are planning to customize it with your own reactive armor, etc.

I was actually debating whether to get the FOV m-60 patten or not, but I ended up getting the t-72.

The FOV M60 is a great piece. I like them both, the desert camo and the green camo. The T72 is also a great piece. I wish FOV would make some more modern armor.
