I’ve been contemplating pre-ordering the release of Alfred Kurzmaul Late Tiger at the show. At $45 big ones, I was wondering if anybody knew anything about it, like is it the recent 3 in 1 late Tiger in a fancy box for the show?
I pre-ordered it already, seeing as even if you don’t build it you can sell it for a bunch in a year, the Dragon Expo special kits usually go for about as much as the older Cyber-Hobby stuff on eBay.
What do I actually know about it? Nothing more than the boxart, and that it’ll have different decals.
This was discussed on Missing Lynx http://www.network54.com/Forum/47207/thread/1185399645/Another+Tiger+from+Dragon Quote: The tank is assembled in January or February 1944 with the new hull top and the old turret. Also the towing holes are not from a final production kit.
Best Regards,
Mark
Thanks for the info Mark. I think I may pick one up, like Hermes said I could probably sell it at a profit on Ebay if I never to build it.
For those who can’t attend the DX07 I searched and http://www.timewalkertoys.com/ will be doing orders and sending them from the show for 59.99 including shipping.
Really? I’ve just ordered it for $44.95 for the kit and $4.95 for shipping Priority Mail. If they jack up the price at the last minute, I’ll cancel the order.
Where’s your source? I haven’t ordered yet…hmmmm. We’re talking the 1/35 right?
Crap! No it is the pre-built 1/72! I’m really glad that they put that in the item description and didn’t hide the scale at the bottom of the page… [:(!]
Now I have to figure out how to cancel that stupid thing. Perhaps this is a sign not to order this kit…
I ended up ordering and used the paypal option. They will bill 8/10 and cancel any orders not payed via paypal 8/13. So I have it reserved and can change my mind if I want to…sweeeet.
Not sure the kit is anything special, but I’m a Tiger nut - so I pretty much get all the new kits that come out.
