Another set I picked up recently was the Forces of Valor 95210 German SdKfz 251, PaK 40, and soldier set. Although not as good a quality as a Dragon SdKfz 251, it is still very appealing just because of its cost and that you have soldiers to go along with it (though I didn't take them out of box and thus no pictures).

Forces of Valor 1/72 Diecast, 95701, King Tiger added

The Forces of Valor 95701 King Tiger that I picked up at my local Target is a nice addition. It also comes with 8 American and German soldiers. It's definitely not the best in models, but for the price it's a good value.

I've added pictures of my new Easy Model 35019 Soviet BTR-80. My primary focus has been World War II equipment but I have been picking up the occasional piece that falls out of that time frame.
