Friends---I just pre-ordered an M-26 Pershing (TAM 35254) from HobbyLand Japan www.hlj.com. Cost $25.88 plus shipping. To be released date is listed as 06/02. Do not believe that date. By the time it arrives, I should be just about finished the Dragon Wagon. I estimate it will take me until the end of the summer to complete the DW.

Gunnie--how are you? Good to hear from you again. I received a flyer from HobbyLand (www.hobbylandinc.com) advertising advance sales for the Italeri DUKW (ITA 06392) for $23.99. I am awfully tempted to order it....

Just fantastic DJ - not a complaint in the world!

Man, I've had the DUKW on pre-order soooo long I've began to molt! Go ahead and take the plunge, I think it'll be pretty cool. A DUKW in the hand is worth two in the bush...

I figure I'll get two Tamiya Pershings before either the Italeri DUKW or Skybow M37
