Another Jagdpanzer IV L/70 from Dragon

Another Jagdpanzer IV L/70 is listed at The Motor Pool for Fall release. It does not have a catalogue number. I have only seen this at The Motor Pool. No one else has this tank listed for pre-order. Does anyone know anything about this?

They also have a Sherman listed and I believe it's been on there for several months. I think they are just guessing and listing what they think will come out.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Jagdpanzer looks amazingly similar to the Huber that was such an exclusive at Dragon Expo '05. If Dragon keeps to their trend, there will be 10 more Jagdpanzers released with different paint schemes. They've done it for about 95% of their releases and I'm sure we'll see the other 5% released over the next year.

What I am amazed at is that Dragon is not making any WWII Allied armour. I realize that Germany gave us an ever increasing variety of tanks, but you would think that Dragon would at least produce 1 Sherman, especially considering that the Matchbox, Great Tanks of the World Collection, is now very difficult to find. FOV gave us a Churchill, which is good, but we need at least 1 Sherman! I finally found some Sherman tanks in 1/144 scale by WTM, although they are ca. $3.00 more than the Can.do tanks! I just can't believe that Dragon is ignoring the Sherman in 1/72 and 1/144. Are you listening Dragon/FOV?

FOV also gave us a 1/72 Sherman.

I heard on another forum that FOV will be bringing out a British Cromwell in 1:72 scale. Don't know how true it is, but guess we'll find out in the next couple months when they release their 2006 schedule.

What ever you heard about any thing FOV is releasing in 2006 is pure speculation or wishing. They haven't said a word to anyone as to what they have in mind. A Cromwell could be one, and so could another hundred vehicles. We'll just have to wait a month or so to find out for sure.
Personally, a Cromwell would be nice, it would be nice to see some AFVs that aren't German. But only time will tell.
