I've a contact with der sockelshop(Germany).....they say that probably will be in stock for the end of the year...so I assume that if it will be in EU in December in Asia and US will be on the market in November,I've noted that the delay for the UE customer is around 30 days.
I really want 2 or 3 of this beast

Going by their release schedule, the HET is supposed to be out in North America around the end of Dec, or early January, and this CV90 is on the announcement for 2 months after that, so I would venture a guess we will see it in NA around the end of Feb, or early March.

Nothing of course is written in stone, and it is just a best guess, but usually how it works out.

Not sure how it would work in Europe, but usually you guys get the Asian releases a little ahead of us in NA, as we are usually the last to know!

well I don't know about the release date but I remember that the sprue shot of the Cv9040c was here more time before the pics about the Het...so it's probably in a good status of development.
I really hope to get it in this year but it's not a big problem,we'll wait!

I wonder if the CF CCV project winner will be announced prior to this kit being released...might be another option for markings.
