I think these polls are a bit of a problem. There is so much stuff out right now, that most of us cannot really keep up.
So these sort of wish lists cannot really be realistic.
How many of us would actually get heavily into Ancients, Spanish Civil War, Aztecs, etc etc when we are already over committed. It is a bit like the dispatches each month when everyone goes on about how they are going to pre-order the whole lot times three for a dio etc etc. How many of those enthusiastic posts actually translate into a sale is a bit unclear. I realize we are all excited and sometimes we let our imaginations run away but get real.
As Matt says he will make what he likes well and trust that quality will make us buy it.
I cannot believe that there is much room for new WWII stuff. Just about every aspect of that conflict seems to have been covered by now and covered well. The FL Stalingrad stuff is top notch and the Eastern Front is probably the last major untapped theatre of that conflict.
We are currently so spoiled for choice right now, that I actually dread new release information as it is usually some stunning piece that I doubt I will ever be able to add to my collection.
Bring back the old approach of Trophy where notging was ever deleted. So you could always come back to it years later if the piece still appealed to you. None of this pressure of retirements or limited numbers.

). There are literally hundreds of WWII vehicles (soft and armored) and weapons that haven't been made in 1/30 scale. Figarti etc have proved that many collectors are keen to add new and or improved WWII models to their collections at around the $200 price point.
