Well... On their website, it's currently listed at December 12th, 2099. So, not official release date yet...

JULY 9! (Allegedly)

Of course this afternoon Battlefront updated the website... It's in giant bold letters: JULY 9th!!!

Huh... That's interesting... The Leopard I's are resin/metal. So each box only comes with 3...

I like the look of the leopard 2s,

I will have to see what it all looks like when they come out,

It is interesting... I keep waffling about putting a small army together with Leopard I's, just so I can use my Vietnam Australians...

Australians had leo1s back in the 80s?

Apparently if Wikipedia is to be trusted, they purchased them back in 1974 to replace their Centurions. The first Leopards to arrive came in 1976, which is when they pressed them into service.

They then replaced them with the Abrams. Gives you you two TY Australian options.

Glitch Sun Jul 03, 2016 12:30 pm

Yes, but they replaced them with the M1A1 Abrams (which we don't have rules for quite yet), and not until 2007. Though, I guess since it's alternate "what if" history, I could see the States selling them very readily and everyone else updating their gear right away.

The Leopard book and paints are due out this weekend. However, the ship carrying Kampfgruppe Muller has been delayed at sea. Everything else is on schedule.

There is a photo here of some primed Leopard 1s. I'll be spending a ton on these.
