There is some discussion of a more formal intercompany contest on the NMA thread, but in the meantime just curious about opinions on the best and worst vehicles and sets from KC this year. I would nominate the WS 71 King Tiger (repaint) although it did not get much buzz on the board. Also, the new 8th Army sets are my favorites and among those probably "Advance under Fire" is the best.
On the disappointing side, I would list the Greif and Panther. The Greif has a smallish appearance, Rommel is not well done (including scale) and a tough fit, the machine gun appears to be too large and cumbersome, and track detail is - well you know. The Panther is not bad - particularly the figures - but disappointing that not much progress has been made in light of the advancements demonstrated by HB.
