Well My Leander idea has popped up, although the picture I uploaded hasn't appeared. Not sure if that's for real or just down to the works server though...

yeah - you're right - its gone! Along with a few other Leopard variants that were there a couple days ago. I see it took my Roland and Iltis (way at the bottom with 2 votes), but failed to upload the photo, which has a lot to do with how many votes something gets I think.

OK, I hit keyword Bundeswehr, and they all popped back up, in the "Conversion" category

http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/20/
Graeme, thanks for finding the missing entries.  I had also done the same thing as you and entered a search for conversions but nothing came up for me at all but a blank page saying "nothing found" which was no great surprise for me since the the page was acting a bit strange during my visit anyway I just gave up and closed it.

Graeme, I thought Trumpeter produced the Faun Elefant with that trailer?  Or is it now OOP and unavailable?

Trump did the Franziska with the 6-axle on-road trailer. This one is the Elefant with the 4-axle off-road trailer (as used by CAF). Revell do this exact kit in 1/72...I am hoping they scale it up to 1/35.

Okay, thanks for the explanation.  Never paid much attention the differences in the trailers.

your suggestion for an VW Iltis is very good, i know a lot of Belgian modelers who would sell an arm and a legg for one of those  :)
would be nice if they released it in both 1/72 and 1/35  8)

May I draw this one (not mine) to people's attention please:

http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/163/

As far as I know, the M-18 Hellcat has NEVER been made as a 1/72nd model for some odd reason.

Four new ones:

Australian Sentinel ACII in 1/35 and 1/72 - http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/379/
Australian Sentinel ACII in 1/35 and 1/72 - http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/344/

Again two chances 'cause the approver didn't seem to approve the first one very quickly.  And two more:

Bristol Britannia 1/72 - http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/282/
Vickers Viscount 1/72 - http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/281/

Saw a couple of interesting suggestions that earned my vote:

Chenowith Desert Patrol Vehicle(no scale given, so I'll say 1/35)
Sikorsky HH-3 Jolly Green Giant (no scale given, so I'll say 1/48)

and another couple votes for the NH-90.

Roundup of mine so far:

Leander : http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/249/
Voodoo : http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/342/
Marut* : http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/item/342/



* For reasons which are as incomprehensible as they are perverse, somebody has also asked for the Marut in the Wrong Scale. Can't imagine why anyone would want to vote for it, but for those who wish to satisfy their idle curiosity.... ;)
