Hooben Abrams
 
looked at Hooben site and they have an Abrams on it. Has anyone heard about this kit and it's quality? I know their T-55 had mixed reviews.
thanks

I have seen the Abrams and Leopard 2A4 at Dortmund 3 years ago at the time they said that they would be available within months as I said that was 3 years ago, the Leopard was very nice with plenty of detail.

Yep, I gave up on Hooben and their Abrams. I guess it will be another E100/Maus abortion and or vaporware....

I wouldn’t give up just yet the Abrams and Leopard were there completed even the artwork for the Abrams box was completed, I think the Abrams was more than just a prototype as they were driving it around, it even came with a built in camera.

Talking of Mause the latest news is that Ark are working on an alloy Mause in 1/16, Ark/Hooben have shown pictures on their facebook page.

I have seen the maus photos as well. Looks to be nice, as all of their models are in detail. I also saw the photos of the Abrams and have not bought another brand hoping this would come out. They do not respond to emails apparently. I emailed them several times about that tank release..no response.

I'm sure Karel47 will chip in but I'm sure a friend of his had one

I did the same waiting on the Hooben Abrams to be released but my Son wanted an Abrams so a HL it is. The Maus looks intriguing but it may be just more vaporware....I will believe it when it is released to the general public, they have less than a stellar record...

There are posts dating back literally 6 years ago asking when the Maus or E-100 from hooben would come out. I would not get your hopes up.

Dont think we'll see the Maus or E-100, would love to know where the prototypes are right now that they took pics of.
