Complete opposite for me, I think it's one of the best lists I've ever seen. Plenty of stuff for Cold War 2.0!

Now I just need to win the lottery!

Yeah, very disappointed there's nothing for my '67 or '73 AIW project.

There is a 'Leopard 1' listed, but it's unclear which model this would be. The current Leo 1 models are all relatively good, and I'd expect any of the modern upgrades to have a pack name which identified the specific model.

Guess I’ll have to wait another year more for 10mm War of Independence, lol. But, the ships certainly have my attention.

Nothing there I was looking forward to. Most of it I don't even recognize. Time to work on my massive painting backlog.

Two of the Micronaut releases are definitely Cold War ships. In fact, by my standards, Blue Ridge is almost an early cold-war ship.

That as may be. But it doesn't do jack for us microarmour gamers/collectors :wink:

This is not a good year for me, model wise, on what is coming down the pike. I did not get even 1 item on my list this time around.

I am interested in the Sherman Firefly 1C. I hope this one will NOT have sandshields on it. I have no particular interest in the rest of the items on the list.

No infantry again this time around. Either GHQ does not have a good infantry sculptor or there is not enough interest. There certainly are plenty infantry and even artillery, AT, and open topped vehicle crews that could be done.

I have plenty to work on in the meantime so will be busy painting what I have.
