If you want, I'll start making up some TOEs at the division level for you to aim towards. :-D I'm one of those odd birds that likes to have a 6mm to 25mm model match > where I can (hard to do, sadly). > I also, which makes it doubly hard when I've got 15mm from one manufacturer (DLD, ForceXXI, etc) and have no 6mm counterparts to go with - or have some 6mm vehicles (like a bunch from GZG and Brigade) that have no 15mm counterparts (yet?). > Point being though even in 6mm, I don't realistically need that much more > stuff.

While Jon's primary focus has always been FT, SG 25mm has gotten its fair share of releases in years past while the 15mm line sat quiescent for a long time. Perhaps like dice in games this status has merely reversed itself for the time being, and we (you) will get some new 25s again.
