Who are you pcomm1?? Looks like you are that Tom Zang defending his model and its rediculous price.
EugeniRUS , you REALLY should not be making accusations like that unless you can back them up!
Pcomm1 may have his faults - brutal honesty and heavy use of sarcasm - but being Tom Z isn't one of them. Do little research on pcomm1 and you will find he has done some very fine models himself, so comments about the level of skill can be trusted.
Regarding Tom Z - a few bad comments would not have driven him away. His obvious modeling skills aside, where there is smoke, you usually find a fire. The few dealings I had with Tom did not leave me overly impressed with his business skills.
Question for colllectors - When a model kit sells for $3,000 isn't it because it is an UN-BUILT kit complete with box and instructions? Doesn't the collects value drop once the kit is put together?
ksoc has the terrible misfortune to know
my round eyes comrade dreamer, so I ain't Tom and live on the opposite coast of the old USA too.
And who are you comrade dreamer? Get that Enzo for $500.00 bucks yet?
And ksoc, thank you, brutal honesty and sarcasm is a good fault to have, it is also
solid Yankee style communications.
Political correctness is not of any interest.
There are many types of model collectors, mint in a sealed box is just one type of collectable and each category goes by what the market will tolerate.
If he can sell the ebay Elephant, good for him and if he doesn't who cares, he will eventually.
But for sure
that tank will remain sought after, irregardless of whatever Tamiya or HL does.
And I hope they
both release 1/16 Elephant rc models and soon. So all us peons can run one including comrade dreamer.
