Yea, Awesome Hobbies Ausrtalia says their comming ouot with the Jagdpanzer Elefant soon. I just bought a custom Kingtiger from them, so thats jow i found out. It probably won't be cheap though. the custom tanks run from 265 and as high as 400, plus its 110 bucks to ship it to america.
If you get one of those tanks can you please review it so i can decide weather or not to buy it???
thanks

Mid-2011 at the earliest but I'm not betting on that.

Buy the Asiatam suspension and tracks then build it yourself. Not a very difficult scratch project and it would easily be done before the Hooben one shows up.
Use 3/16 and 1/8 plex for the majority of the hull. Cheap stuff....

Hi I dont think you will see the Elephant or the E100 from Hooben .If you want one the only place i know about is this one http://www.ludwigs-hobby-seite.de/flohmarkt.html
I have had a kit from him there good quality ,There is someone doing a build of his Metal Elephant,Not plastic like Hooben,he also has the E100 Jagdpanther II conversion and Cromwell .worth taking a look,Bet if you ask him hewould make the Cromwell hull in Metal.
regards pete
P.S. Here is the link for the Cromwell http://www.ludwigs-hobby-seite.de/cromwell_1.htm

It's been over 2 years since the T55 was introduced and its still not a complete kit. The Elefant and E100 were scheduled for Spring this year already.
Sounds very familiar.....

If our friend Sev says watch his web site then he may know a little more than most and they have been posting out missing parts so perhaps finally there may be some hope as for the E100 and Elefant well there biggest sin so far is to tell the world what they are planning lets hope the next announcement from them is a genuine release date.
