Pretty much a work in progress, some detail work still needed to be done, but the overall design are shown here!
Even though we have made quite a few other M3 variants, we have not shown them all...

For more detail images of each of the variants, please go to the following link:

NOT ALL will be used to produce as a plastic kit. These are prototypes for us to play around and to create the best M3 Half Track plastic kit for the masses.
We might incorporate the missing prototypes to another kit or an expansion kit later...

Please feel free to comment!

Woah woah woah, "not all will be used to produce a plastic kit", that has got to be one of the dumbest things I have ever read. You realise that there are a dozen companies that already produce half-tracks, most of which have a price point not a million miles from yours? You know what would differentiate yours? Having an option to build it with these uh...options. Have it as an add on sprue or something but dont shoot yourself in the foot by just producing "standard M3 half-track model #13"

Well they did say "NOT ALL will be used to produce as a plastic kit. These are prototypes for us to play around and to create the best M3 Half Track plastic kit for the masses.

"Might" is a long way from "will". They would be very silly not to.
