Usually new releases are announced in late summer- early fall- during the Tokyo Hobby Show - sometimes info gets leaked before that. The new releases usually are ready to ship late Fallto mid winter ( Oct, Nov & Dec). Their last release for this year was the M51 "Super" Sherman that has been received with mixed emotions. Scan thru this forum to see what the other tankers think of this release.
Hope this helps
