Takon
Takom has announced that a new Skoda siege howitzer and a variant KV-5 are being released with some extras. With the Skoda 42cm Siege Howitzer there will be a figure of Erich von Manstein. This is a different version of the previously released Skoda gun, and was also used in the siege of Svestapol. And the KV-4 will be released as a Pz.Kpfw.758(r). It should be noted that I can find no record of a KV-5 captured by the Germans, thus the tank would be just theoretical.
