What's the quickest way to get a model company to put out a new kit? Simple. Scratch build or do a conversion of the model in question. Several years ago, Jim build this ersatz M-10 from the few photos he could find of the vehicles deployed by the Germans during the Battle of the Bulge. He added the distinctive sloping armor of the M-10 to the Tamiya Panther Ausf. G kit to replicate the mock-ups the Germans produced A few months after he completed the model, Dragon came out with a Smart Kit of the Ersatz M-10. Go figure.
