Damned if that site will not translate, but at $75 AUD, even for a static, its so cool that its worth it.
The chassis alone can be used to make some awesome conversions.

I thought about pre-ordering until I saw the postage they want. Once you deduct the VAT I'd be paying more for the shipping than for the item itself. That always rubs me the wrong way so I try to avoid it.
When FDR coined the phrase "The Arsenal of Democracy", he was talking about Detroit. Proud to live in the 2nd most violent city in America!!

Can you get on to your Government and explain that US postal charges is the biggest single reason why I and many others do not buy products from the USA and explain to the self same Government that threatening to withdraw from the IPU a UN Body (International Postal Union) will only make matters worse especially for small US Company's.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

sorry, I don't want to smash your dream, but the Panzerjäger I used the hull of a Ausf. B not an Ausf. A (too short hull).

But what about this ;) :

Got mine ordered. At $75 AUD, you'd spit out your coffee at how much I'm paying. :haha:
