Onsite Diecast has announced that Admiral Toys is introducing a Panzer III in 1/72 scale. Check it out at Onsite or the Admiral Toy Website. Cost is ca. $17.50. It is supposed to be 90% metal. It looks pretty nice.

Wow! 90% metal? That looks like it will be a great little tank.

The only thing I wish they would do different (as well as Dragon Armor, Forces of Valor, etc.), is make the same tank but with different numbered markings on the side. So for those that buy multiples, they don't have the same tank number on each tank (example; this tank is numbered "5", do a second one numbered "6"). Can't be expensive to change a single number on the side of one of these tanks.
Wargamers love these prepainted and prebuilt diecast tanks, but hate trying to cover (or remove) some of the markings when using multiples of the same tank.
