Dudes....chill...itīs more likely this refers to the Jagdtiger and the M-ATV.The Tank in the picture is obviously 1/35.The Hype Train leaves the station when there are real pictures of the Objects in question

No it doesn't. They announced a kit of the tank in the scale back in January IIRC.

I think it's not clear to some people that this is large size packing tape.. not the small size "scotch tape"

Well,i think "some people" want to see that itīs a packing tape roller....but i strongly believe itīs not.Maybe i did not see the news that Trumpeter was planning it,but come on...this size comparison doesnīt prove itīs a 1/16th T-72.Still i wait until i see a real picture from Trumpeter,including Item Number and scale,until i go checking my wallet.

Of course, every one is entitled to his opinion about what size tape this is

Easy enough to work out: if that tank is 1/35, then the tape dispenser is only 15-20mm long. Maybe it's Barbie's tape dispenser?

Not looking forward to this release, waiting on the hunting tiger instead. Thanks for the news, H.

Guys, guys, it's not the size of the tape that matters!

That said, a 1/16 t-72 would get me interested in Soviet shooty-things!

Oh, it's for real (for all you doubters) and actually they announced 2 versions in 1/16.

But i still donīt really think the picture shows the 1/16th scale version...it just doesnīt work for me with that tape dispenser in comparison,sorry.

Oh, no problem at all buddy!

Trumpeter has a habit of announcing kits (especially their 1/16 projects) and then taking forever to releasing them! Like the 1/16 SU-100... I think it took over 3 years to actually see it. I was being driven CRAZY as I am a huge fan of that vehicle.

Now just to get around to building it. LOL

I really hope you are wrong, because it would make a dent in my finances if it did have an interior...

(Somewhat joking.)

I still can't find information on it, though.
