That would be good. Tamiya will have all German's WWII fighting tanks that strike terror to all the Allies especially if you are a Sherman crew just 1000 m away from a Panter or Tiger with the 75 or 88 turning towards you.

mmmmm .......

 

This I find disapointing.

From the picture it appears to use the old metal chassis from the early Tiger kits, I found the Tiger 1 and Tiger II tanks a disapointment after the Pershing and Leopard.

I was expecting a new tank kit but I was absolutely gagging for either the M1 Abrahams or the Challenger tank, and to be of the quality of the Leopard 56020 kit.

Oh well, keepo waiting I suppose !

Update, a bit of info, came from germany, dripping into a dutch forum.

and.. forwarded to tamiyaclub :)

 A rough translation of a translation from german -> dutch .. now to englisch .

At the Spielwaremesse they will release more info (maybe even the final or demo model)

And, the bad news.

It will be a concept line release ( ??? ), meaning, price will be the same worldwide.

Rough estimate, 800,- euro's

 

thats all for now!

Just saw one of these running at the RCX 2007 show. I'm not into tanks, but it looked pretty cool.

Looks good i take it this will be similar in construction to the pershing etc rather than the leopard. Just need to decide what tank to build for my next project. Cheers for the update
