What unusual of niche WW2 vehicle/AFV would you like to see manufactured? (1 Viewer)

[Guest]

I know it has been a few months since we have had a Tiger 1 and a while since a new Sherman, but i do not mean those type of vehicles, so stay away Sherman and Tiger 1 geeks. I will start off with 2 below,

Dicker Max - 10.5 cm Self Propelled Gun, 2 manufactured and only 1 saw action.


and

The British Archer 17llb Antitank gun. Fare enough not that niche, there were 655 manufactured, but it rare we see a British WW2 AFV .made by anyone........... Plus it was a cool vehicle, with the gun fitting and firing rearward, so easy to shoot and scoot.

I’d love to see a Panzer VIII Maus super-heavy tank

At 188 tons, the Maus is still the largest tank ever constructed and only a couple were built to working prototype status with a number of others in various stages of manufacturing when the war ended. One still survives in the tank museum in Kublinka, Russia. For whatever reason, I could really only see this coming from K&C as they’ve arguably made the most diverse selection of tracked vehicles to date. A Maus would go very well with their Battle of Berlin themed figures.

Big vehicle, big box and a K & C one would be heavy, could see Eagle Design doing one and possibly even T Gunn as they both make from materials which are lighter than K & C, plus T Gunn are known for making great post war 'could/would have been' aircraft. Could mix it with a few of the tankettes below,

Maus was just another step to the war ending vehicle, Die Ratte.

A real land cruiser and a centerpiece for every serious WWII toy solder collection.

There was a model of one at the Bovington Tank Museum in 2019,
