Yippee!!!!

From the Comic Con pics, it looks like we might be getting a Brumbar!! I also saw some pics of the new (fingers crossed) 32X FW-190, P-51, ME-109, and P-47Ds. We still need more troops and playset pieces though. C'mon 21st!!!

I'm going to need a second job!!!

Well that reminds me...(call me a low IQ dude or something because when you said Brumber [which i have no idea what that is] i thought of bomber) and in my conversation with Roy (again I hope that was his name...the product designer??) one thing he mentioned was that 32 scale was great for planes because it would allow them to do a bomber..he said for example a B25.
now I'm not starting a rumor that there is a B25 in the works...just remembering bits and pieces of the conversation that were pertinent to this scale....but seems like they are open to the idea. i don't know if this is news or not

and I got out of 32x ... sure seems like the way to go for vehicles and aircraft. and now that SW is doing that unleashed line and army building concept close to that scale...

anyway just wanted to add to what i remembered and add to some of your guys' sleepless nights!

Markecho: The Brumbar was a kind of sturmgeschutz (stug) or motorized assault gun. It had a short-barreled howitzer or mortar (anyone feel free to jump in and help me out here). I think it was used to knock down walls and bunkers. Brumbar is German for "Grizzly Bear". I suppose it was named for its stocky appearance.
I can't wait to see 21st Century's version.
Hey, how about one in 1:18 too?
