Does anybody have any pics of the box and/or kit? I'd love to see what the kit looks like.

Back in the day, Tamiya Mokei(?) sold a lot of 1/21 and 1/25th armor. Their large scale lineup had more offerings than their 1/35th line at the time. IIRC, an M40, PzIII, the StuG, others - I think the JSIII/T10, or at least the T10 in 1/35th, along with a T55, AMX30, SU100, and more. Their 1/25 Panther variants - now Academy - and T34/85, SU100 kits came along later in the late 60's or very early 70's.
Used to drool over the ALNAVCO armor catalog with all the Tamiya kits shown.

And yeah, 27.00 is a steal at today's eBay prices.
