[:0]TRUMPETER T34/76 1942/43 & T34/85 1944 1/16th SCALE

The Bolsheviks are coming!

I've pre-ordered one, and am getting ready to build 'big Sovietsky tank'.

Ron

Seeing as you guys are getting it first if I send the moolah to the Sates and as the exchange rate is good and get it sent back as a gift it will be tax free won,t it? No paying nasty sterling! Question am I allowed to do that?

Ron, what's it going for here? I need a target.
Kath, thanks for the email by the way. I guess I need to build some 1/16 Stukas now.

Yep, pretty much everyone here allready knows!
I don't think I'll be getting one though, too expensive, plus I'm not really a fan of large scale models. However, I can't wait to see what all of you fanatics have to say about it. Here's a brief preview of some of the contents:

Looks to be very nicely detailed. Personally, I'm waiting for their 1/35 Morser Gerat and railway carrier. I thought it was supposed to come out in July, but there's been basically NO information on this kit. Kind of pi$$3$ me off

This is who I ordered from. The price is $119.00 US. I don’t know if they ship internationally, but it’s worth a try, eh?

Ron

I'll have to go back to the site and get the two catalog / item numbers for you.

Here are the catalog numbers, etc:

TRUMPETER 903 1/16 T34/76 MODEL 1943 $119.99 06/2004
TRUMPETER 905 1/16 T34/76 MODEL 1942 $119.99 06/2004

By the way, welcome to the forums. I see your partner is a bit of a U-Boat fanatic. Same way myself (although armor wins out!). Look at the 1/72 scale Revell U-Boat.. I've got mine! Thread. I've only been in the U505 myself (about a dozen times).

Regards,

Ron

Is there any news on the RC version yet - or is this down the line ?

Bids

Sounds cool, but I'm waiting for the reviews of their KV-1. A long neglected kit.

Tigerman,

Is the KV also 1/16 scale?

Ron

Hey Ron, last I heard the good folks at Trumpeter are giving us a KV-1 and 2 (apparently both options in one box!) in 1/35th.

I'd obviously love to be proven wrong.
