I think the jagdpanzer IV would have been a better choice.
nashorn would have been cool.
I'm all for the cromwell, and a bren carrier would've been great too!

This is bloody frappin fantastic!!! It's been a while to be honest I had started to forget about 32nd stuff. (I even put some of my tanks in the closet gasp!)
This looks like a cool selection, excited for the Pershing and very glad the GMC truck will have a removable canvas top, was a big oversight on the 1st release and one of the reasons I didn't buy it.
I DEF. second the calls for a Bren Carrier....And, I gotta keep saying, RUSSIAN STUFF WOULD BE NICE!

decided & realized to bring back the
Pershing though. Especially for all who missed out the 1st. time around.

Agreed. it was perhaps one of the most popular and sought after tanks FOV ever made. One thing I noticed in the pics of the "new" Pershing that Matt posted.... the weathering looks pretty intense. I know that these are only pre-production pics, I just hope they don't go too overboard on the weathering, which has been somewhat of a problem on certain FOV enthusiast models in the past.

Oh yeah.... You can count on me getting at least two, if nothing else they'll make a good platform for repaints. My last NIB Pershing went for almost $200 on ebay, and a poorly done repaint I picked up at a yard sale for $10 that was missing half it's parts went for about $60, so there'e no denying the popularity of the first issue of the FOV Pershing, and while it's possible the second issue will be released in larger numbers, I have little doubt it will be highly sought after.

FOXHOLE TOYS:
What are the chances of FOV doing a reissue of the 1/16 King Tiger-Peiper?
That tank is the 1/16 version of the 1/32 M26 Pershing because both are going for big bucks on ebay so there is a demand for both tanks.

The beauty of forums.A free flow of information.
These bidders are probably unaware of this re-release.
And will probably be disappointed with what they paid,once they find out.

I think FOV would be better of making 1/16 Panther or Jagdpanther than reissuing Peiper king tiger ,if they were to make a new king tiger then a porsche turret one make sense , you can still pick up Peiper Tiger of ebay
