I found the link to the Tiger http://www.bigtanks.de/site/inhalte/...n/100_4171.png as I said the turret and gun don’t look good, it’s based on the initial batch

Saw Fuyuan's 2 M4s & M36 up close & personal today. At first blush, they do look good but scream for detailing & mods to make them into what they really should be at the price. Damn shame they are 1:6 scale since Mario's son over at ECA could do wonders with his product line.

The Tiger I wasn't shown since they are still working it, but they are already planning on another future release. Can anyone say, "Here KITTY, KITTY KITTY!"?

Either a Tiger II or a Panther

Yes, its to be a KT. I recommended to Kinson that he go with a smaller subject that offers some options such as a 38t / Hetzer if he wants to stay with German tanks.

BTW, many of the vendors I spoke with are quite pessimistic regarding the economy, having seen slow sales this year so don't be surprised if new product releases get pushed back or cancelled altogether.

Vantex was offering a rather sweet deal this past weekend at the Toledo Weak Signals show.

Shame their boss won't consider doing a Hetzer or other medium sized tanks that were recommended.

912€ is a very good price for this tank, it’s a shame that as in 1/16 Tiger I and Tiger II have been done to death people who already have one of these won’t buy another but they could be tempted to buy something like a PzIV ausf H or Stug III the Hetzer that has already been produced didn’t sell that well but like the 1/16 companies they won’t listen and will wonder why people won’t buy another
