Thanks Tom. I did spot a couple on rctanks.de at lunchtime but not seen them anywhere else.

I'd like to have 450 eur + shipping for each. I have to admit that they were made only 500 pieces
Yet the last one only made 250 euros on eBay...
That was just an exception not a regular offer... Last year I bought Aber photo etched side fenders for 2 eur, but the regular price of such kit is aprox 20 eur. An exception, too...
Btw, I bought the last one 223 kit that was on stock at Xion.de for 489 eur...

Trumpeter SU 100 is nice and I believe they have a jagdtiger coming out soon . Also the hooben elephant is nice similar to their t55.

Seconding the recommendations for Trumpeter kits, the T-34/76 is very nice and converts to RC well with aftermarket metal upgrades.

Just my 2 pence worth

The two trumpeter Mrap kits are very good value for money and large kits

I now have two of each ...and will in time convert to rc

There are always Ludwigs kits, although they aren't cheap they are excellent quality, and you will end up with a relatively exclusive tank at the end of it.

A Tamiya Sherman 105 kit is still pretty cheap for a Tammy, around $500 shipped here in the US. They are excellent kits that you can then change into any number of variants. I have 5 of them! I have made a M51, an E8, Jumbo, standard 105 and now working on a firefly.
