A Stuart would be great, Cheep and fast, that how I like em...um...Tanks ,that how I like my tanks .

or a British tank.....

Panther F

Well, I think an M3 or M5 Stuart in 1/16 RC would be great, but I really don't think you're looking at a more affordable, cheaper kit just because it will be a smaller tank.

A desert version M3 Honey in British colors would be nice, but not the British tank I had envisioned.

Cromwell or Centaur ARV all the way!

Bagheera

Centurion, Comet, A39 Tortoise heavy assault tank

Go retro. I vote T-26.

"Any British WWII tank that starts with a "C" would be great..."

The time has come, Tamiya.

Martellus

Cromwell please.

The lack of british armor is dissapointing

I don't usually chime in on these sorts of threads but what the heck

1 ) Cromwell or Comet
2 ) Semovente da 105/25 ( some of you expected me to list this one)
3) JapaneseType 97 Chi-Ha

I know the latter two of these will never see the light of day as a kit but still I'd like them. I plan on building the Semovente
in 1/10 scale at some point when my current dozen 1:10 projects are further along.... yeah right.

I also wanted to ask, besides the pain of the price, what is the general consensus of the Tamiya JS-2? is it as well engineered
as all the other Tamiya models or have quirks arisen?

I heard there might be a Stuart in the mix. Wasn't my first choice, but if one was produced I would buy it.

My vote is for an M46 (for little investment by Tamiya) or an M48, M48A3 or M60A1 or A3.

It's pointless to make polls about what's one's desire for next tamiya tank: they don't care.
But we can guess that next tank will be an ISU-152, using the same hull of the IS-2, same electronics, same mechanics, same sounds... they just have to upscale a 1/35 upper hull and they are done for another 'new' 900+ $$ model...

I agree with all of the suggestions on the "wish list" posted here. The frustration of waiting for a particular tank to be manufactured is what made me start scratchbuilding. I think 3D printers are going to change things. I really hope so.

I know it's hopeless, but it's fun to dream. Wouldn't a 120mm gun M103 be awsome!

The Abrams. I would buy tomorrow. I am really surprised at the lack of 1/16 Abrams tanks.

I want an M48 or M60.

I would say something modern or something British WWII era. Otherwise I won't spend the money. Light tanks are a waste IMO as far as IR battling goes. They can be successful but how many people do you really think would buy an M3 or 5. Not many I would bet.

I would enjoy building any Allied or Axis New Tamiya WWII 1/16 rc kit that is not a re-issue or a TD variant.

A 1/16 scale Tamiya Abrams rc tank seems a must have for modern armor.

I do not know what the general hobby builder consensus for the Tamiya JS-2 rc Kit is other than the price issue, but I found the kit fun to build. I did some basic infrared battle setup upgrades: ETO Black Motors, Impact 8 tooth pinion gears and I used an ETO DT Panther G metal elevation arm. Used the OEM kit tracks (no other choice) and the model runs well.

A-men to THAT! M1 Abrams, definitely! And a 1/16 Scale T-72, Tamiya. THEN You can make ALL the (YAWN) "Shermans" You Want!

+1, yes! No idea why this hasn't been done already, this is the iconic cold-war tank, hopefully they'd have all the parts and bits for a Vietnam campaign version. I also think something from WW1 would be interesting and unique.
