Howdy, folks!
I’ve just gotten word that Tamiya will be releasing a 1/48 Tiger I (early production) and Pkw.K2 Schwimmwagen at the end of November. The Tiger will be 2,000 yen (about $18.00 USD) and the Schwimmwagen will be 1,000 yen (about $9.00 USD) here in Japan. This news comes to me via my buddies at Panzer Works, who are now doing research for a resin interior for the Tiger.
Great news for all those who have been yearning for some good 1/48 armor.
I’m sure there will be some official announcements from Tamiya soon, so keep your eyes and ears open!
