No news on the C-27J (kit 1284) Deino. Here's the latest news PDF from Italeri. http://www.italeri.com/NewsImgs/DOC_NEWS_000046.pdf
Might get the F-100D repop and maybe the Frecce Tricolori set (depending on whose kits are in the box!)
Global Hawk is a rebox of the Hao Platz kit from Japan.
Missing from this list is kit number 1296 which is supposed to be a Greek Air Force F-104 Starfighter and 1301 which is the F-35B. These are supposed to be in the UK around September 15th along with the F-100D.

Re-released and back in Hannants, the 1:35 M24 Chaffee - IMHO a superb little kit - last couple went on that auction site for over £25.00 !!!!!! http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/IT6431

The paddle boat in particular could have steampunk applications.....

These are working models when done and several interesting ones coming.  The Paddle boat was reviewed on IPMS/USA.  Here is a link but not sure if you can see it if not a US member but will post it anyway.

Just spotted this today on the Squadron site, an AA variant of the Staghound armored car:

Interesting kit! :thumbsup: But an MSRP of 70$? :o Man, you guys are getting gouged. LuckyModel has that kit for 35.99$ (LINK!) and not as a super special marked-down price.
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Got that in the UK a while ago. £31.50 at Hannants

The M-24 Chaffee builds beautifully except for the rather stiff flexi-not tracks....hope they've changed their plastic for these.....

Hmmm... I think I'll have to buy one or two of those M24 Chaffee kits. I only have one of the WW2 version with the single pin tracks and deleted 'dozer mountings. Beside, those things often seem pretty dear when they show up on eBay. Kinda funny since the JMNs have been whining about its various minor inaccuracies for years.

Some clever and amusing quote goes here.
