I see on the dust models site they are releasing stat cards for models like the barking dog and fury of ivan which won't be tournament legal.

Since they have a card pack coming out does it mean future purchases of the models will have stat cards in them also?

It doesn't show recon mickey as one of the cards so does that mean it will have one included when it ships?

That's the assumption. The card pack is meant for people who have already purchased the figures before they had cards. Units shipped from now on should come with cards.

The new Recon Mickey (although not pictured with one) has been confirmed on Dusts Facebook page that it will have a stat card. Otto's also was shown on Facebook but not printed quite yet. They did say all future releases would.

thats great now which should i buy 1st? recon micky or barking dog? or even the jagenluther.

Easy, Barking Dog. With this kit you can also build all the other Mickey variants, plus you get a pair of 20mm AA guns to make another version and if you add the new tank crew kit you can make your own Recon Mickey.
