ECH Coverage of the Nuremberg Toy Fair 2011
« on: Wed Feb, 02, 2011, 05:07:PM »
Rather than re-post a bunch of photos that aren't mine, I am just going to add the links to a couple of sites that have pictures from the show.

This first one is in German, but we can still look at the pictures;

And as per usual, Prime Portal has awesome coverage!!

And I can't understand why? Assuming you mean the Tamiya one coming.

One....it is a Pershing that there was only 2 prototypes built, and it never saw production,

And two.....Hobby Boss did the same kit about a year ago, along with about 2-3 other versions. Yes the Tamiya kit will likely be an easier build, but the Hobby Boss one will be better detailed, and half the price. Not really understanding why Tamiya went in this direction when there are so many other vehicles out there they could have chosen from that either haven't been done, or haven't been done in quite some time that they need to be updated.
