Excellent! I waited too long for the M-26. It will fill out my collection.

Finally some good 1/32 news. I can't wait! I wonder if FOV is doing away with Action grade. It would be nice if these vehicles started showing up at TRU's and Target in Action grade.

The one 1/32 FOV tank I, like many others, can't wait to get! Great news & thanks for the "heads-up"!
I'll be checking your website for availability of the Pershing - You'll have my business!

Awesome news! I'm totally down for the Pershing, having unwisely passed up the previous one, and the Jagdtiger should be interesting as well. Hopefully it will be better than the 21c version. Glad to see there's still life in Unimax and some new items for the 1:32 world 8)

This is sort of a mixed bag for me, I'm happy that there will be new 1:32, and FOV at that, but saddened that it will be all Enthusiast Grade WWII stuff. All along I've prefered that Action Grade items, and modern is my era. I'll probably pick up a M-26, and maybe an Opel. I keep wanting the Duece and a half, but I just can't quite bring myself to spend the money on it. One Duece seems odd, I'd want a convoy, and a convoy of $50 trucks isn't something I see myself buying, and this is now that my personal economic situation is looking up...

So, I guess I'm still happier than I am saddened, but mainly, I'm glad I got what I wanted when I did, since it's unlikely that I'll be seeing it again...

I may pick up the Jagdtiger if I find one cheap to complement my 21C version. I only collect German vehicles so the others are lost on me.

Nice pics Matt, thanks for putting them up. I'm in for at least one of each in both scales. 8)

I wish they had picked a different tank destroyer, but the jagdtiger might be cool.

I would be curious to know what your choice would be then Nate..?? Given that FOV has already done a Jagdpanther, Elefant, and a Stug III, the Jagdtiger seems like a fairly logical and reasonable choice, and I personally would rather have something new versus a repaint. I suppose a Nashorn could be an option, but outside of that I can't honestly think of many other choices for a German TD that hasn't already been done by FOV or 21st, or both.

wow, thats great news....it would be nice if i ever saw the deuce and elefant from the last releases...guess i wont ever see these either....i used to have the faintest bit of hope everytime i walked into a target or toysrus...not anymore, now its only an empty pit of despair...

agree with the 50$ per vehicle price being way to much for the average joe....oh i miss 21st Century.

I know I personally would have rather had a jagdpanzer IV of any variant. The standard jagdpanzer IV, the jagdpanzer IV/70(V), or the jagdpanzer IV/70(A). I would prefer the IV/70(V) out of the 3 though. The jagdtiger has been done, and I can only handle so many big, rare panzers like the jagdtiger. I probably still buy one of each though :D

In general I'm glad that FOV has "new" offerings this year, but I'm kind of disappointed with their choice of subjects. I think a T-34/76, an M-10, and a panzer II of some sort would have been really good sellers. Hell, the T-34/76 and the M-10 already have some of the work done, use the hull of the previous t-34/85 essentially, and the the lower hull and running gear of the sherman and you're halfway there. Why FOV would choose to release vehicles that have already been done (either by them or 21st) is a mystery to me, but it probably comes down to financial reasons.

I would really like to see the t34/76, m10 and pz II with the addition of a cromwell or comet tank.

I think the jagdpanzer IV would have been a better choice.
nashorn would have been cool.
