The Panzerjäger Tiger Ausf. B, known usually as Jagdtiger is without doubt a large tank. A 1/16 model of it must be really large.

I will be getting one short of any 'killer' reviews.

Be nice to see them do a Panther Ausf. A or G in their 1/16 tange.

Trumpeter never corrected any of the accuracy issues which were found in the 1/16 KT. Since this kit will contain may of those same lower hull interior parts, be prepared to do some fancy scratchbuilding.

I'm interested in the 1/16 Abrams.

A Panther G in 1/16 scale has already been shown in their 2016-17 catalogue.

An A or D Panther would have been MUCH better since Tamiya and Heng Long both have RC versions of the G out.

But beggars can't be choosers I guess.

Taigen released an updated version of the Torro Jagdtiger... of course they are both RC but hope the Trumpeter is more detailed and has aluminum barrel!

I have got to have it...any idea if they have markings or decals for an Otto Carius version? I'm excited about the Abrams and T-72 as well.
