Aussies GHQ releases your Bushmaster Yes that's right bushmaster,your Euro Tiger AH version and OMG the Aussie version of the M1 A1 Aim SA.....Can you say Aussie in the Stan i have long waited for these and tho some of these have been released earlier this year by H&R to see these done by GHQ is fantastic...

OH CANADA
you get The M777 155mm and the Leo 2A6M Can I do not now if any of these models will be released with slat armour like the kit for the Stryker but lets hope..
ADATS that's right your superb AT/AA system will be released sometime this year...

Germany
The Boxer wheeled APC will see the light of day at last

USA
We get the MQ9 reaper whats different from the pred we already have you say ....Its a tad bigger and carries 16 hellfire missiles rather then 2 ....so it like we don't even need to bring a army just a few MQ9s and Jtac and we are golden take that Taliban and AQA. We also share the M777 to replace the M198 155 in the stryker Bdes...

Israel
You get the Bad Azz Magach 6B GAL a very mean upgrade to the M60. and the IDF M? half track Its early in the listing so the exact model of half track has not been nailed down but 1 will be done which who knows at the moment could be the APC, Mortar or 20mm all are candidates.

South Africa
you get the Rattel 60 , 90, Casspir MPAPC and Mamba (think early Niyala RG31/33).

UK
you get the FV432 Mk3 Bulldog ( if I buy anything it will be this model) an Upgrade of a truly great cold war warrior Tho the squaddies that had to live in it might not have thought so.
Upgrades include CROWS applique armour slat armour, IED jammers and other upgrades to make it viable into the next century. Tho it has been relegated to rear rather then frontline to me its represents the british soldier in the GWT and will see frontline use in all my battles...

Soviet Union all all who use their equipment
you are getting a redoo of the T-62 MBT and the T-62A (or sometimes refered to as T-62M). Here is hoping the T-62A comes with dolly parton armour for the turret.
A new sculpt of the BMP3 I think..

Modern Naval you will see the Aburke Flight II and 3 new Chinese Navy ships including their new carrier a DDG and a FFG These are the first new Modern naval in over 10 years rejoice...

Well that Aussie stuff makes me very very happy. :D
But my wallet very very sad. :cry:

Just need an ASLAV-PC and possibly some Aussie infantry to really finish off. I could go on with other models I'd like, but I won't.

Great list. My wallet hates it, though. :lol: I like it that they are doing modern naval again, but I had switched to 1/6000 a few years ago. Only way I could afford the addiction.

I have to stop buying and start painting somewhere along the line. :roll:
