Cool! Now we have the earlier variant of the Marder. Hopefully these won't be as hard to find as the first

Long Tom
...and things that are on shelves that I will grab when I see them...
P-51D
Fw-190A/F
M117
Panther playset
FlaK 88
I have the biggest smile on my face, this room I'm sitting in right now will be filled to the gills with 32x...

I picked up a Jagdtiger today as well as the new FOV Stug III with the riders. They both a very nice though I haven't opened the Jagdtiger yet. Best part about the Stug is they didn't apply that annoying black wash, they get carried away with that stuff sometimes. It will be fun to customize.
Now where are those Marders?

Yea I hope the first Marders show up soon. Im thinking about buying the action series stug with riders, just for them but I only have seen it at one TRU. I do have the enthusiast one anyway.

The riders are quite well done. Luckily there were two Stugs on the shelf because the machine gunner in the first one had a MG that was all bent to hell. Next to my Stuart it is really one of the best Action Series vehicles I've seen.

Sounds sweet! Do it! Do it!
I may buy another for customs.

BTW, did you see my T-34 custom in the Customs & Mods section?
Yea, gotta watch out for us "bad influence" guys!:lol:
The T-34 is wicked! The custom lettering really adds a lot of realism to it. I couldn't do the masks like that because I have a fine tremor in my hands that makes it a bitch. Primary reason I gave up doing kits but luckily I can still paint/airbrush and weather ok.
The Sherman looks very nice as well. I also have one of those old FOV glow in the dark Shermans that I got from KB Toys years ago. I've been meaning to give it a repaint with some more suitable flat OD and seeing that one I may have to!

You dont have to sculpt the pigs head, just yank one off a 21st stug!
I did this and cut the barrel down to give it a good 10.5 cm look. May not be toattly accurate but its pretty cool!

I haven't seen any of those in my AO. Are they TRU only? Or has anyone spotted them at WM?

So with this version its sporting the zis -3 76mm? Everyone thinks we may see a hertzer... Which I hope is true but I cant help but wonder if it only makes since we see a Russian anti tank gun and crew?
I know seems to make way too much sense, but would be nice if 21st responded to the clamiring for russian armor with a T34 or other as well as a anti tank gun and crew???
