Wonderland models is taking pre-orders. Regular price is 499.99 GBP; pre-order price is 449.99 GBP, price excluding VAT is 374 GBP, which is $465.93. Damn, that's a lot of mazuma for a kit without guts.

My understanding is this is partly a pantographed up model of their latest 1/35 release-- and is capable of R/C motorization. But if it doesn't come with any of the gear that price tag is pretty steep-- I doubt it'll sell well at that price, considering it's not a large vehicle to begin with. There must be more to this story.

For the size they leave off a ton of detail. Footman loops are molded on as are grab and hatch handles. I saw the review of the full RC version and it was very disappointing.
