Now here's something that should be offered in 1/35th rather than every silly paper panzer project ever drawn-out on a napkin in May of 1945! Not to mention those silly things that never even got that far! Reality, especially Col War-era reality, is far more interesting and plausible. I'd probably add one of these to my stash if it were made available. I'd definitely review it here too.

I always keep a picture of my wife and kids in my wallet. It reminds me why there's no money in it.

So W-Model has this (for the exact same amount of money); I wonder how much the Trumpeter kit will be...
It might even be cheaper...

Trumpeter... if it happens, then maybe feeling slightly sorry for anyone that laid out for the Panzer Shop 1/35 resin kit, it must have been $150-200. There was one being built here on Armorama, but apparently not to a finish:

So far only we have the model in production:) And not only that but couple of customers are already building it and share picture.
One of those build must appear on the top banner here, and for all images you can visit our Facebook page.

1/35 2A3 Kondensator In-Box Review
US $ 177:70 to be precise, free shipping due to buying some more stuff at the time.
I bought it about 9 months before the announcement here at Armorama:
https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/258922 I have also bought a resin 2S7 Pion before Trumpeter announced theirs. I haven't bought the 2S4 Tyulpan yet, in the hope that Trumpeter will release one ....
