For a long time last year, I had heard that Takom was going to come out with a 1/144 scale model of the German Landkreuzer P1500 Monster model kit. Rumors that I heard were that it was supposedly to be released in late Fall of 2015. But so far......nothing.
I went to Takom's Facebook page tonight and found a small blurb saying: "....the Landkreuzer P1500 has been cancelled."
So I make a post on Takom's Facebook page asking what happened. I hope they reply. Would anybody else know if this is true? And if it truly is cancelled, then why? I was really looking forward to buying one of these model kits.

It's a shame if it is cancelled. I was looking forward to pick one up also.

Well, it must be true. I went through all the photos Takom had in their Facebook photo gallery. They used to have a pic of the following in their photo gallery. But now it's not there anymore as I suspect they've removed it.
