I assume that you want a Jagdpanzer IV or a Hetzer? As the Jagdpanther and Jagdtiger are already made by FoV and 21st C. respectively.

Would be nice to see a Hetzer though.....

I mean Marders II & III, Jgdpz I, Jgdpz IV L48s, Nashorn, Hetzers, etc.

Picking up the Dragon 1/35 Die-cast Elefant when it ships.

I really want open-top SPGs

Am I the only one who would like to see some early machines? How about a PzKpfw 38? or a Panzer II? And how about some more Allied armor in 1/32? I would dearly love a Bren-Gun Carrier. Or a Cruiser tank ( anyone would do). I know there is the FOV Matilda, but how about a Crusader or Cromwell? I mean these were all basic staples of the early war, and used in large numbers. For that matter, when is someone going to produce an Italian or Japanese tank? Oh, and would anyone else like to see FOV take their jeep mold and produce a Rat-Patrol set?

Well you can always buy the K&C hetzer (1:32) for 190$ :)

The K & C one has the usual K & C problem, they are painted well enough.

But It looks badly out of scale and its tracks look a bit err shit the wole one mould resin thing just does not do it for me.

The K & C figures I think are generally very good but the vehicles to me are poorer than even the worst of the 21st or FOV ones.

I seriously would not buy them if they were $10 never mind $200.

In actual fact that hetzer might be almost a correct scale for 1/32 not impressive as K&C figures are a fair chunk bigger than 1/32.

I supose that could be just a very tall officer in that photo :( note even taking in to account the large base and his hat he is taller than the hetzer that stands 2.17m tall.

I make that officer about 7 foot something.

I don't think they are poor...they just have a type of style to them. Kind of cartoonish, where as FoV and 21st (and the like) tend to go for an exact-replica-just-shrunk-down look. I don't really like the K&C style but to each there own. They do pick nice tanks to make though....

And yes a Nashorn would be cool.

I give K&C props for doing the rare things you don't see

1. PzKw I
2. Grille 15cm SPG
3. a French convert SPG from Becker's AG coy from the 21st Pz in Normandy
4. Hetzer
5. Porsche Tiger

also the allied stuff they have made

but it looks kiddish, compared to 21st/FOV stuff.

saw again the Flakpanzer 38(t) that K&C makes...

what does K&C make their stuff from? Lead? Alloy? or is it something else?

21st C and FoV

21stC actually makes (made?) a JagdPanther as well as the JagdTiger.

In the Hetzer picture the "tall officer", at my first quick glance, looked like he isn't wearing any pants.
