Hi Rob
We will have a Marder M on show which should be available next month - comes in 3 versions of 99 each. Ronnie from Crossroads will have a Club Special of his own for sale with 30 being produced in the markings of the Hoenhausen Division which fought at Normandy and Arnhem amongst other exotic locations! We may have our own Club Special later on but it's not been confirmed yet.
The Puma has been slightly delayed but should also be available next month. Pictures of the Marder plus the Tiger and the results of the Tiger competition will be made available on Tuesday.
No I won't be at the Early Bird because I am sat here typing this in so I guess I had better get my act together and get on down there pretty sharpish!
Regards Blake

Blake,

Can't wait to see your real Marder III M pictures. There were so many different Marder types. Was it this type?

BTW, when are those new German figures coming out?

Well I am glad that Blake has finally announced our new exclusive Marder III. I have been about to bust trying to keep it in. As Blake mentioned we have a limited run of 30 pieces scheduled. Details still haven't been finalized but we are expecting these sometime in July. I have a few pictures but I don't have any of the finished product. I am going to check with Blake before I put my pictures out. We will be adding these to our site in the next day or so as the details are finalized and we have a better arrival date.

Thanks
Ronnie

Is this a first come, first served situation?

 

[Crossroads]

Hey Brad,

I suppose that would be the best way to do it. I know its hard to say without actually seeing the item. If you think you might be interested send me an email or pm and I will reserve one. Once we have the pictures available you can confirm or cancel as you see fit.

I haven't seen the final pictures of my exclusive and I have only seen a early production picture of one of Blake's versions but I was very impressed. I definitely think NMA is headed in the right direction.

Thanks
Ronnie

Ronnie,

Thanks. I will drop you an email and we can take it there as you suggested in the above post. Thanks.

Thanks for everybody who stopped by to chat it was a very good show and thoroughly enjoyable despite the hangover!
I would like to clarify that there will be 10 grey Tigers direct through us and another 20 for dealers around the rest of the world so I suggest if you want a grey Tiger (and she is a really lovely piece) you should contact your normal dealer and ask him to preorder one through the normal channels. There will be 2 DAK Tigers with 75 of each being available - one is of course 131 and the other is 111 her hunting partner from the same Battalion. Both come with different figures and will be excellent value at around the $80 mark.
The other 2 versions Summer and Winter will have 100 available also with a different figure from the above sets.
The PAK 40 will come with an SS crew for summer in green coats and there will be a winter Paratroop and desert paratroop crew version also available. Price yet to be confirmed on this essential battlefield piece.
The Marder - well what can I say - never had so many positive comments on 1 piece of hardware! Everybody seemed to love her - this beauty comes in 3 verisions of 100 each. The crew will be available seperately so you can buy the Marder 3 M version for around $80 and the crew will come as a 2 piece that you can mix and match with the other SPG's in the pipeline (whoops did I really let that one out the bag!) Other crews are also in the pieline as we speak.
Timescale for the Tiger is around a month with the others not far behind.
Best Regards Blake

Sign me up for 2 grey Marders and 2 grey PAK 40s. Hopefully this request will snowball to more than 10.

Hey John (Gambale) and fellow 'croakers," are you on board with the Wehrmacht grey colors?

Hello Blake! I was Right, the First Time I answered you, about that you are making a MARDER, and Second chance, I said it was the Tiger Tank! So, I'm I a Winner of BOTH? Also, I glad you took my Suggestion's, along with other's , about doing MORE Paratroops! Future suggestions; We want a RECOILLES RIFLE TEAM, PANZERSCHRECK TEAM, MOTORCYCLE TEAM, MORTAR TEAM, and MG TEAM, ALL PARATROOPS! Also,a WESPE, would be GREAT! Can't wait to see these Photo's soon? CIAO!
