When I opened the box I discovered that panzer 1 tanks in 1/35 are tiny....so the double boxing seemed appropriate. Paul Glad Takom was at least trying to give their customer value for the money. Always nice to get two kits for hopefully close to the price of one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 Well, this was wwwwaaaayyy bigger than I expected I've looked at this kit on and off since it came out. Having picked up the Andy's Tiger 1, I figured it's not much bigger. Then Great Hobbies had it on sale this past weekend for $300 CAD, about $220 USD so I finally went for it. Not sure what's scarier, that it's 1500 parts or the "+" sign after it. In any case, Sue now has a box big enough to get rid of my body... 4 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I start this kit, I'll definitely do a WIP for it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The theme is going to be « Sandbox ». Of course, I’ll let Martin precise the rules, but my take is that any subject related to, or used with, or in contact with, sand is good to go. See the thread « Upcoming group poll », where I, among others, posted some « inspirational » pics. Hubert 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
