I just wanted to say how pleased I am with how 21C handled the release of the newest 38T, Marders and Hetzer. I have yet to see these in person but have a few on their way courtesy of KAMIKAZE. 21C managed to do all these things correct:
- Bring the quality of armor up to their fantastic standard set by recent aircraft.
Keep their price point the same.
Choose a vehicle not well known to the masses but historically important.
Make all of the variants of a singular chassis.
Do this quickly which leads me to believe they are serious about pumping out plenty of 1/32 this year.
Well done 21C! After this love-fest, could you give us an aircraft update TKO?

You've said it all, I can't add anything to that except to say I agree 500%! The new armor is awesome! I agree that if 21st makes well known models like the Mustang as well as the lesser known models like the Marder and Hetzer they will draw in more customers. Newcomers will be amazed and vets like us will be happy to see new stuff!

I agree.
I've said this before, but I would love to see a new 1/18 or 1/32 Sherman and Tiger I to compete with FOV's.

I picked up a Panzer 38t today at Walmart. This little tank is beautiful. I can't get over the detail, and I just can't seem to stop looking at it!

I agree, 21st is doing a MARVELOUS JOB in the smaller scale!
