That tank looks sick but $100 is a little to rich for my blood. So like havoc said if anyone sees it cheaper somewhere else post it up here, I would love to get on.

No kidding! $100.00 plus shipping --- yikes!

It is is a great looking kit --- been waiting on this one, too! But the price tag threw me for a loop.

Wonder what the back end of the tank looks like --- does it have a big hatch like the Merkava? Would be great to see it alongside a 35th scale Abrams to get a sense of scale.

I wonder if we'll ever see this kit on sale or marked down...? Even if this is a big kit, which it looks like it is, I was thinking more along the lines of $75.00.

If anybody sees this puppy on sale and at a more reasonable price, please shout out!

Regards and Aloha,

Johnny B.

Been waiting for this beauty for a long time.  Looks great.  Now all there is for me to do, is to take that 1/35th scale gundam[g] forarm, mod it into a Zaku forarm, scratch a 1/35th heat hawk, and imbed it into the tank.

ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS?!?! ARE THE FARKING CRAZY?!

CJ I looked all over for ya, wikapedia, MAHQ, some ebay movie site, and all the model retailers and I can't find the size of the kit or the tank to do the division.  I don't think these guys know how big it is.  Gundamstoreandmore usually tells you the size on big things, but he doesn't have them yet.  Sorry man.

Big Smile [:D] Yeah, I didn't notice the price right away. I assumed it would cost about as much as the Hovertank, which I got for around $40.

I wonder if the price is related to how the other kits in the UC Hardgraph line did? Anyone know how well they sold?

Looks huge. I'm gonna have to start thinking about where I can display it.

Yeah I'm just hoping the yen drops by the time I get around to ordering one. Love the look and want two of them.
