Hi Guys,
I just find the Hooben E100 is available online. The price is about $880(shipping not included.)

Looks like most of the parts are plastic, not like the Hooben Maus.

Thats the original proto shown in plastic. Would you have a link to this online store? Last I knew Hooben was only offering all metal versions of this series.

Have seen messages off Feng saying plastic was planned but I'd like to see a web link before I'll believe they're up for sale.

This E100 was found on Hooben's website in Taobao:

I chatted with Bill Feng just last night & he told me he has no plans for the ABS kit.

Is the Barrel the correct length?
Looks short to me

It is based on the World of tanks version of the E-100 with the 150mm cannon and the 75mm mounted above it instead of beside.

I talked to the Hooben sale, they are currently working on the sample. The released date is TBD. The model will be full metal(some parts are plastic, just like the Maus). I will keep following up with them.

herrmill

Yes, metal with some plastic detail parts exactly same as their Maus. I'm certain its underway but last time I visited Hooben didn't see anything other than the 1/16 Tiger so bear in mind that magical acronym TBD.

Damn, I hate all of you... another model I don't need but be will be inexplicably sucked into buying...

So when will it be available?

Come on, Jerry! You, of all people, know the answer to that question.

Me, I'll wait for a Crusader or Valentine to appear.

That's comical, based off of the WOT, the 150mm was more of a charged spaller not penetrator, thus the shorter barrel.

The e-100 was probably the most ethereal of the German 'what if' tanks.

I'm not concerned personally whether or not the thing had much basis in reality, it's a fun exercise regardless
and conjecture and imaginations can run wild as to what it could have been like. From the development or
experimental 'e- series' I've latched onto the e-25 and e-100 as the two that I want in my herd.
