I am following the long held and proud tradition of miniature soldier collectors (I am so pleased with myself 
); I am complaining about a recent release, and I haven’t even seen the new release yet, only the pictures on Treefrog so go figure. This comment is something that must be written if that long held and proud tradition is to be continued and honored. Traditions are something that gives us a sense of place, a sense of history and a sense of group. They (traditions) are a way of passing our culture from one generation to another; they (traditions) are a way of influencing future decisions based on past precedents; and they (traditions) are a way of getting what we except as normal practice.
Since K&C is giving us the opportunity to purchase the new M12 Motor Gun Carriage, when can we expect its accompanying M30 Cargo Carrier Each M12 was paired with an M30 for purposes of providing ammunition and as a transport for the M12 gun crew. All that would need to be done to provide the missing half is to remove the 155mm gun from an M12 and make some minor modifications to the carriage. New crew figures would not be necessary as they are already present in the DD78 set.
Here are two links for reference purposes:

So now that K&C is providing us with half a set of SPA, should we not complain, as tradition would demand? I think the answer is obvious, I wants what I wants and I wants it NOW. Plus its better than holding my breath ‘till I get my way.
