Many of your Wishlist suggestions have been considered, and we are seeing the desired products appear at stores now.

And the Winners are ...

When a previously unavailable range of figures and equipment is released as a result of the Military Miniatures Magazine Wishlist, everybody wins. Not surprisingly, manufacturers picked many of the top-ranked items on the M3 Wishlist, as can be seen in brackets behind these former product suggestions.
