Great week for allied armour modellers

[Nev]

A slew of cool looking figure sets from MasterBox - including 2 British Para sets!!!

Then Academy announce their new M7 Priest

All good stuff

Hmmmm....as long as Academy don't bugger it up like they did with the Sheriden and M3 Stuart it should be good. Now has anybody built the Masterbox figures? From what I've seen on the web they look quite good

According to the article on Armorama, they've retooled the suspension bogies which had some errors on the Lee boxing

The M7 does look nice, is it the late version of the M7?

Early, apparantly

I have a couple of their sets (British Troop Caen, and German POWs 1944) and the detail is excellent, the poses imaginative. Their is a bit of flash on the parts, but the nature of the plastic is such that it cleans up easily enough.
