But the turret's metal!

Yawn. Tamiya should release the most unpopular and least retailworthy tank ever, then sit back an' watch Taigen/HL/Torro et al trip all over each other to copy and release it, and plummet to earth in a sales flameout.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but in this case it's just laziness in hopes of quick n' easy sales.
