Just in time, my old built-up Italeri kit just flew off the shelf and broke into pieces. Zvezda isn't as insane with the parts count as Dragon so this could be a good alternative for builders like myself. The prices are usually more reasonable too.

They do? Do you happen to habe a link? Whilst the Dragon model is nice, it certainly has its shortcomings. So I'd welcome a more accurate new kit. Maybe they'll even add (basic) interior bits and pieces?

And you know what's also cool about them? Those are often the part break-downs so you get to see what'll be in the box.

They promise three types of muzzle brake, turret interior and zimmerit as an option. Coming this February...or by Nurnberg toy fair.

Sounds very promising! The DML kits have set high standards, so it will sure be interesting how Zvezda's kit will perform.

I am very interested, in this. My first love was German pz.III's and IV's. However, I would rather wait, until a test build is presented; before discussing something in the planning stages. After all, we have seen many planned kits go the way of the dodo.
