Sorry if this has been answered already, but I was wondering if (long term)
GZG intends to release more of its Future Wars and Dirtside 6mm miniatures,
especially vehicles, in 15mm scale?
I plan on getting a platoon or two of Stargrunt troops and while most of the
miniatures I want are either available or can be readily converted, the
vehicles are a bit more of a question mark. I know there are good miniatures
available already, but I'm interested in keeping my Dirtside and my Stargrunt
forces harmonized.

Well speaking JUST for myself:
I've got a pretty large DS army, but nothing for SG except some 40k miniatures
at the moment. I'm looking to get some figures to represent my DS army on the
15mm scale, then add a new army at both scales. The new one will use figures I
select specifically for compatibility across ranges. So this list is mostly
for my current army.
Rob's Hot List:
AV6 Troop Transport (DSM-102) (VTOLs vary widely in look so it's
hard to find a close match from other ranges)
Range Truck (DSM-122)
Tactical Interface Transport (DSM-118)
Also great to have (I can replace these with miniatures from other ranges, but
I'd love to see them in 15mm.)
Tritonian II Tracked APC
Triton IV Tracked Missile Launcher (I've been using this as a
heavy APC w/ GMS/H)
Boxcar Infantry Transport VTOL (DF-V04)
SYCAT Tracked AA Tank (the modular chassis / turret options from
the FW series are really nice-- I also use the SIMCAT and HELLCAT tank
and artillery vehicles).
AV9 VTOL GunshipC (DSM-108) (I don't use these heavily but again
VTOLs vary considerably between designers, and the AV6/9 are iconic to
GZG IMO)
I finally plan on kit-bashing together some PA snipers, but I can
imagine that the market for that will be limited to me.:)

If you intend to give Phalons PA I'd like those, though I personally like the
idea of them using the recon pods instead of PA (just so they aren't just a
copy of the other armies).
Other than that, probably Kra'Vak armour.

Speaking out of turn (by ignoring the fact you 15mm guys are Scalist
Heretics):
Some of the best models in 25mm:
- Hover Jeep (but if you are doing it in 15mm, you could think about
making a flatbed and a window-backed version rather than the closed
back standard one, and a box back version for an ambulance)
- Open topped hover jeep with the gun in the back
- Diemos AC tank
- Goliath AC tank
- Wombat AC APC
- Flatbed AC truck + MRL variant
- Rommel AC tank
- LIPPC wheeled APC
- Coonhound wheeled tank destroyer
My biggest disappointment, the one thing I *really* wish Jon made in 25mm and
would buy a handful of myself, is the Boxcar (I won't even ask for the super
boxcar, though it would be good too). I find both
infinitely preferable to the flying-brick like AV6/AV9 series. The
Boxcar and super Boxcar were excellent. I just wish they'd been made in 25mm.
(Still do!)

ther thought too, It has been mentioned but I would second the Deimos and the
blower tanks and gun cars. I know there are already 15mm designs being done by
Old Crow, but I like the GZG designs.

I would second the request for more images (in the 6 mm section, for
example... I have no idea how the most part of the 6 mm items look like!)
I've been waiting a year for this question. Putting up with *endless* sheep
jokes...
Here's my list.
1. Virnazh G-CAV grav assault APC
2. Weta Grav APC 3. Cockroach Heavy Grav Tank 4. Police Patrol Air Car
Something like the M-95 Calliope on a grav platform would be pretty cool
too. Maybe an add on for the existing grav flatbed?

The current New Israeli models wear hardsuits (my preference) in the 15mm
range and are described as light infantry (no pic) in the 6mm dirtside range.
I'd love to see both types available in both ranges. Basically, I like having
the same force organization at multiple
scales-- I also think it helps remove the temptation to optimize one
organization that you use in stargrunt and another that you play dirtside
with.
If I had to choose, I especially like the hardsuits, since my preference is
for full space suits for my infantry (ie except for militias, the only
infantry in my forces are hardsuit ("light") or power armor (standard);
infantry walkers are listed in my TO&E as "heavy infantry". The bases I've
made for my infantry have a "lunar" look since they are equipped to fight in
uninhabitable environments.

> Oh, and one more thing....
The 6mm NI are the same as the 25mm and 15mm ones, in hardsuits -
the "light" description is as opposed to PA, though in hindsight I can see
that might be a little confusing! But rest assured the 6mm ones are very
accurate tiny versions of the larger scales. I have given some thought to some
actual "light" NI inf (unarmoured), and possibly some heavier PA as well....
it depends if folks would be interested enough to make them viable...?
