Given the amount of damage the newer ( and some older) manufacturers have been doing to wish lists over the last few years, once this lock-down is over can some of the more creative and less risk-averse far eastern manufacturers get some teams with laser scanners and measuring tapes out there to provide us with something from this lot in styrene ( preferably at 1/35): GIAT /NEXTER Caesar 155mm SPG either in "original" 6x6 flavour As used by France, Thailand, Indoneisa  or the newer 8x8 as used or ordered by France, Denmark, Chezc Republic & Saudi Arabia;  FPE Foxhound/ Ocelot  BAE RG32 variants in use with Egypt, Finland, Ireland South Africa, Sweden;  |

I do like the look of the top one and just a shame it’s not Russian as then we’d probably have a version already. High on my wish list is this beauty.  |

Joking aside, I think it's a really interesting thing to build because it would be uniquely yours. Now when will I start that Torbruck bunker?

I would love to see all those done in 1/72 scale as well Paul. Hopefully someone does them all for both of us.

Thanks for that information. I am a bit averse to building in resin as I tend to hurt myself a lot. I'm willing to wait and see if anyone releases it in IM plastic.
