-M26 Pershing
-M3A1 Halftrack w/ Side Racks and Figures

1:72
-Bussing-nag truck (the seated figures are removable)

I'll post reviews once I get them.
 
I'd be interested in seeing some "real" collection pictures of these new releases from FOV to see if the quality has improved. We spend a lot of time on this Forum complaining about increased prices to which the reply is usually its due to higher quality. Well, when I first started collecting FOV they usually cost about $25-35 USD. Now they are about $45-65!! :eek: The cost efficient alternative to the metal giants has doubled........has the quality doubled??? :confused:
 
IMO they have remained the same or, very similar. I always thought they were realistic AFV's (never really liked the figures) but, have not really seen the massive step forward in relation to the cost you mention. They are though, still very good value for collectors of WWII who want weighty accurate sets.

$45-65 is a fair price for their level of quality and detail. Think of the earlier issues as being half-price rather than double now ;)
 
OzDigger....

What a novel way to ignore price increases I will have to start thinking in those terms

Hye guys! Haven't watched the site for awhile but are the new releases finally shipping yet? Need to get my 1:72 truck and Wespe.
 
My sales rep at FOV sent me an email earlier today, the US deuce and a half, the German cargo truck and the Jagdtiger are all in route, I should have my stock in time to take to Annandale on the 11th and certainly Chicago as well.

The cargo truck in 1/72nd scale has been a home run, have sold through about 38 of them, can't wait to get the Wespe as well, nice to see it in that scale..........................
