That's not selling yet, is it? I can't find anything but pre-release sales.
Any ideas what it will cost?

So they're finally releasing it? How's this going to differ from the HB's offering (besides the potential sticker shock and black plague label)? Any ideas?
Happy modeling!

Note that all meshes and lattice platforms are molded solid. Trumpeter (not HB) has all of them in PE.

I do some 3D design work. Message me for more info on what I'm doing or have done. Inquire about a product catalog.

Expected arrival is August but mine has been on pre-order since May of last year. They've changed that date so many times they've worn out that line of code on their website. Cost listed is $120.

Looks like wheels must be replace ( big holes between rim and tyre ) plus set of PE parts. It will be very expensive model. Just don't get marketing way of DML managers. Making stunning kits and each of them with few realy crap parts!
