I'm not buying either one unless I know they include cats and wine bottles.

A "normandy" repaint of the sdkfz 7/1. Camo doesn't look like normandy at all!!

The Kfz 70 looks lost in that big box.
Needs more accessories.

For the record, the re-release FOV normandy jagdpanther looks like sh!t. Glad I got the S3 germany version.

Considering that it just reached HK not so long ago, I would say maybe 2 weeks for it to reach the US.

Re: More FOV for 2012!!!
Not very wild about that jagdpanther, however, I'm very happy that it differs significantly from the S1 version it was aparently trying to replicate. If anything, it looks sort of like the one in the Imperial War Museum in London, but with different numbering... Just glad again it looks like crud, so now I'm not so worried about my S1 version loosing value, etc.
The KFz 70 seems pretty neat as well. I need to get more of the FOV trucks and other "soft skinned" vehicles since they are the only company making them.

Agreed.
Lots of these new FoV releases really need some weathering, as they look Minichamps "factory fresh"
And that Jagdpanther looks terrible. A shame.

Over the last couple of years the Enthusiast grade looks more and more like the Action grade. Too pristine!

Re: More FOV for 2012!!!
In terms of FOV jagdpanthers, methinks that the S2 belgium "01" version looks the best. The S1 and S3 versions both look like they can be from normandy.tmanthegreat wrote:Not very wild about that jagdpanther, however, I'm very happy that it differs significantly from the S1 version it was aparently trying to replicate.

Re: More FOV for 2012!!!
No too impressed with the new jagdpanther; I was hoping it would look a little more like the S1 predecessor.
FOV quality is dropping and the prices are alway increasing--not a good trend at all.
And I agree, the S2 is the best of the bunch, though I do like the original S1 as well. I was able to get the S2 jagd a few years ago and am pleased with it.

Re: More FOV for 2012!!!
I feel that the original S1 was too dirty, however, the S4 is too clean. My personal favorite would be the S2, but I didn't want to spend big bucks. I found the S3 germany version for $40 and fell in love with it. The S3, IMHO, can be considered for a normandy jadg. considering its camo and such.

This is the first picture of the actual 1:72 Sd. Kfz. 7/2 I've seen. Scroll down in the link if necessary.

Re: More FOV for 2012!!!
I'm going to have to get the 2.5 ton truck and the Soviet armor. As a result of all these choices from FOV, which is exciting, I am going to be spending lots of cash! Things are looking up for 1/32.
