What a joke!

140 (one-hundred-and-forty) issues and $2,073 for this when a far superior tumpeter kit goes for a few hundred.

Looks like a pre-decorated model you assemble with some super glue. Not a serious model.

Looks like lots of metal parts where a screwdriver is absolutely necessary.

These Mag's come out here in England. I often buy the first issue because it is so cheep, and I bought the first two issues of this tank. It would build into a nice model if you had the painting skills but so expensive...cheers....Kenny

I think it's mainly metal and does require full painting. For maybe 20 isuses and $500 it would be a good deal. But not when trumpeter and Tamiya have already filled the void at a resonable price, not to mention in only one issue, too.
