Both are great ideas. I don't know which I'll go with, but they both would be very cool. Now I won't feel bad about guttingthePanther- it will be reincarnated as something better after I get my Tiger I, Sherman and Panzer IV done. What worries me is that it took me 3 months of unemployment to get my Pershing done....and I'm gainfully employed again. Will I live long enough to finish? [X(]
I have to- I want a HL Sherman to customize when they come out, and I want a new Tamiya kit "just to tick off peskybobcat".

Ok, actually I was really impressed with my first gen Sherman and want to see how much they've improved on the newer models.
