That's it. Meng's making a strong effort to be my favorite mfg. First the Minenraumer, then the M2A3 Bradley and now this.

I know its probably a long shot but does anyone know if Mengs latest beauty will have an interior or even a partial interior ?

I think it was mentioned in the other thread on this, I don't think it has an interior. Could you imagine the added cost of an interior on this beast?

Meng gave Auf1 155mm SP howitzer a full interior. I don't know why giving PzHbtz 2000 a full interior would be more difficult or costly.
