And yet I have seen posts on this site where members have claimed to have seen S2 in both the Hetzer and Marder.

It doesnt make me happy but thats what they do! its a bunch of bull if you ask me. They did it with the p-51 double nuthin and the new artillery figures. And almost all the 1/48 vehicles

I don't think anyone has reported seeing an S2 Hetzer in stores, just the occasional box art or online image of a once-scheduled release that never made it out.
I know I was disappointed when both the S1s I ordered did not come with the remote mg that the pictures say it should of had.

I know for certain that there were a few e-bay auctions and am pretty darn sure some board members have found these at WM.

I've seen the 38T and Marder repaints at Target but I've never come across even one Hetzer anywhere in my AO. Glad I got mine online.

There was a S2 Hetzer on ebay. I found the post and hit the link but the photo and auction are no longer available. I've been checking ebay every day for a S2 Marder. Haven't found one yet.

Wal-Mart has 8% of The U.S. retail market. They get whatever they want from manufacturers and distributors, whether the item exists or not.
Godzilla gets what Godzilla wants.

Here she is
not a myth, comes from an old thread and I did see these on ebay as well as some s2 of the Marder IIIM (however, Marder might have been someone passing off the tri-camo 1:48 as 1:32 by mistake or purpose)

I don't believe that the 1/48s have antennae.

yes, but it was a marder i was talking about
this pic is the S2 hetzer for sure. there was a thread about the authenticity of the camo a few months back.
I had to dig it up and post a plate of a brown and tan ambush camo stug and it matched. Decent paint scheme.

I wish I could find either one, I love the Marders. I still haven't bought the Heidi one.
