That would be a shame because Xingbao is doing the modern military theme that Lego refuse to do.
Perhaps it is more likely to do with the licensing with the 3 tank manufacturing companies. Hope they come put with more modern military sets soon.

I noticed that all the the military models in presell are now missing, also the ships (like the Missouri) and the C130 gunship.I messaged the Xingbao official shop via aliexpress. They told me they are in production and should be ready next month. i hope it is true.

The seller just contacted me saying they have stock of the F-35, so I'm expecting the other sets to be rolling out soon also

According to the AliExpress tracking information, my Missouri is already in transit:

Neat.
I just went on AliExpress to look, and there are now a ton of AC-130s listed as "Actuals". So hopefully I'll get around to ordering that soon and perhaps the F-35 and other tanks and ships aren't far behind.

Did anyone order Xingbao's new tanks before they went OOS? I did order all 3 of them on 11.11. "singles day" sale, but none of them was shipped so far ... but the orders are all still active ... and I am certainly willing to wait as long as it takes It also took quite a long time until XingBao's Type 99 tank (set 06021) finally arrived ... several month from the order to the actual delivery. And the 2 formula 1 cars from XingBao took almost a year from the first "presell" to the actual delivery ... So I am pretty used to waiting for the XingBao stuff to be finally released, which seems to be "normal" procedure.

There is a good price on the Xingbao T99 tank. Look for chinatown store on aliexpress: it is 30 € (mobile price only, you must buy it with the app, otherwise it is 40 €).

Just found 2 stores in Aliexpress carrying the 3 new Xingbao tanks....!
Keep in mind now China is still celebrating the Lunar New Year. So shipping may not start so soon...

Have you checked with the seller if the set are actually in stock? Lots of sellers try to sell stuff they actually do not have...
