I&#8217;m trying to keep up as best as I can, but at the moment I&#8217;m running a couple of days behind. All orders (with a couple of exceptions) to the end of Monday have been completed and I&#8217;m roughly halfway through Tuesday&#8217;s ones &#8211; although there&#8217;s been a slight hiccup with a minor broadband issue that prevented me doing today&#8217;s post in time, so they&#8217;ll have to go to the post office tomorrow instead. I generally tackle them in strict order of arrival, first-come-first-served, although if I get two orders for similar items then I&#8217;ll do those at the same time as it&#8217;s generally more efficient to do so. <\/p>\n<p>Since we have no new releases during the sale, we like to post pictures of new items that you can look forward to in the New Year. A box of bits turned up from the printer at the end of last week and one of those was our first brand new item for the 15mm Hammer&#8217;s Slammers range. It&#8217;s an uparmoured version of the M2A4F command tank (designated the M2A4FUA). I&#8217;ve sat it on a standard blower hull for the photo since I didn&#8217;t have an uparmoured hull handy. The turret is a brand new 3D designed piece rather than a conversion of the existing command tank turret, and should be available sometime in January.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"8112\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/2017\/11\/sale-update\/commandblower\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CommandBlower.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"720,540\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"CommandBlower\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CommandBlower.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.brigademodels.co.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/CommandBlower.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"540\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8112\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The sale has gone off with a bang and a veritable Niagara of orders.
