Corgi USA has put a 2007 Catalog PDF download on their website. I'm only interested in the 1/50 scale armor and troops in which I'm disappointed. The only real surprises are the Russian troop offering and the armored cab on one of the German flak halftracks. I'm not into Russian stuff and I already have four of the Corgi halftracks. I was hoping for a King Tiger and/or a M-10. I'd been told quite some time ago via email from Corgi that a M-10 was being produced, but there's no evidence of it to date.
Here's the URL

Some interesting stuff, especially in 1/72 (my new favorite scale)...
A-10
MiG-29
A-4 (Flying Mule Exclusive)
The Falkland's carrier diorama looks cool, too.

of stuff. They show a lot more figures in the Forward March line. Not sure how many vehicle or aircraft are different.

Hi,
There's always going to be more to choose from in the smaller scales. Production costs are alot less expensive plus its not as hard a sell to brick-and-mortar retailers to stock smaller boxes. Retailers like Walmart, Target and Toys R US are constantly looking at the turn rate on their shelf space. Most would rather sell a smaller item that sells more briskly than put a large box on the shelf and watch it sit for months before someone takes it home.
