Here is my list. I have been fortunate that many of my previous wishes have already been met but there are still a few things.

1. Israeli Infantry/Heavy Weapons - 1967/73. I would love to see some Israeli infantry from this period.

2. British Infantry/Heavy Weapons - 1970s-80s. Hopefully with the scrim on their helmets.

3. Churchill V - The Churchill with the short 95mm gun for close support.

4. Panzer IVG - GHQ has one but the model is off a bit. Wrong drive sprocket with no teeth, dimensions seem off a bit as well, needs a tow cable, and the shorter L43 gun vs the L48 gun which was in the very late production models. Yes, I am asking for a complete resculpt of this workhorse of the Wehrmacht as the current one is not up to the standards I have come to expect from GHQ.

5. WWII American Heavy Weapons Pack #2. This would include the 30 cal M1919 and M1917 MGs plus the 81mm Mortar and maybe even the 4.2 inch Chemical Mortar. At least 2 man crews on each and maybe a few extra figures as NCOs, Ammo Bearers, etc.

Boxer's common chassis offers a lot of possibilities. How about the common chassis, for which we can buy different modules? BUT, for now, need the high top Boxer variant for command and medical roles. The mortar and recovery variants would be nice, too. Several armies are buying Boxer. The Brits are equipping their mechanized infantry battalions and may use it, rather than Aries, for their armoured infantry battalions currently in Warrior. The Boxer artillery variant may replace AS90.

The new USMC wheeled amphibious assault vehicle.

That's my five, if you do all the Boxers.

Since I'm trying to recreate a "Heeres Flak Artillerie Abteilung", there are some gaps in GHQ's inventory that I'd love to be filled.

2. Kfz 415 with Kommandohilfsgerät 35 on a Sd.Anh 53 trailer.
