Anyone seen the mini? Thoughts?
The hull and track look more modern, to the untrained eye, such as min, and then it looks like they took the really old brick T-Hawk and stuck it on top without the wings and added a turret and dozerblade. Overall, it's too tall and has too many rivets for my utter approval, but I think it's got a nice look.

I'd give a review, but on the off chance it might appear on my painting table (like the warhound did after I slated its "green"....) I'll hold back on my comments for now.....

well its not tomy tastes but then again my leman russ companies wouldn't mind blowing up a few on the other side of the table.
Does remind me a little of the WWII stuart (might be getting a bit mixed up in fact highly likely as i'm just back from the pub!)

Ah ... the Stuart's turret was in the middle of the hull, you should never drink and try AFV I.D. ...

Hi,
Very nice, shall have to see how much the army I've been planning is gonna cost. Won't be cheap though.  Some cool stuff for the other Spec Games too on the advance order page. Hopefully we Brits won't be too far behind on this stuff.
Cheers,
Freshmetal

I like the new metal aspects though i suppose you could convert them yourself relatively easy.
What im really looking forward to,is the release of the new engines of vaul and titans

Interesting, wonder where all the "new" vehicles went?
They had masters, maybe they changed their minds.
