@MTLJoe
If this is going to be a Hummer in HO, does that mean that there will be more armory in both scales moving forward?

I would still like to see MTL make commercial and personal vehicles in N scale. Your tooling philosophy works especially well for vehicles and it is something I would totally collect monthly.

PS. Dude, your last few weathered freight car releases have been killer! No one makes anything close to this good looking (including my own attempts).

MTLJoe:  Thank you.  I (wrongly) thought some of the HOn3 predated the KD/MT split.  All KD had before then was an HOn3 coupler?

Yeah, I'd love to see MTL do a 60' machinery flat (HTTX / OTTX / MTTX etc) and a range of construction and farm equipment loads.

@MTLJoe I'd still love to see a laser cut wood deck overlay for an 89' ITTX chain down flat too.

Heck yes!  But I bet the licensing hurdles will be significant  :o

Depends on how accurate you want them.  There's enough variety in farm equipment that it shouldn't be difficult to design a believable generic version of almost anything.

Farm and construction equipment would be great! I know Deere and Cat can be rather expensive to license but Komatsu, Volvo, New Holland, Case, and others would be easier. I have wanted a high quality Case backhoe for years.

Then there is a ton of abandoned manufacturers like Euclid, Michigan or Allis-Chalmers.

AGCO might own the rights to Allis-Chalmers still, not sure exactly how that works. But if you could get in with AGCO, they've got a ton of brands that are under their umbrella, Massey Ferguson, Challenger, Fendt, Gleaner. Farm equipment would be awesome to have.

Farm equipment would be welcome.  But, please, not before the paired window baggage/passenger combine!  ;)

The big news for patience challenge N-scalers is assemble 10 packs of 1015 and 2004 couplers. Yay

So it is a HO scale Humvee.  I wonder what the modular construction means?  I would love to see something like that for the N scale Humvees. 



And I would also like to add my vote for more N scale farm equipment loads, as long as the quality is there.   :)

In N scale of course.  :D
