Academy M3 Grant announced - what a pity

[halaci]

Academy has announced its M3 Grant, which was rumored to be postponed untill they correct a dimensional mistakes on the Lee's bogeys. It had been done with the M7 Priest - but what you see on the images on their site? Yes, the old, too high bogeys. I know that there are a lot of AM possibilities to correct this (other issues I could not check on the small photos, except that the back of the turret seems too rectangular), but it is mistery to me, why does a company spend money to improvements if they do not use them?

I think we need to wait and see. The actual production kits may indeed have the changes.

I agree with Roy. Looking at a pre-production build and passing judgement is pointless.

This is just me talking, but compared to what we're had ootb before, the kit looks like it'll still be a pretty big improvement over what we've had before....
