Aren’t there by now more kits of Panthers than there were real Panthers produced in the first place?

The current crop of Takom Panthers all run to £60+, so I can't see this one being cheaper - rather a lot for what after all is a medium tank, against my principles to pay so much!

Must clean me specs, being a very, very soon to be retired truck tech, always like wreckers!
Hi guys going off course a bit but I do find the price bit quite interesting, 60 + would probably buy me enough 1/72 stuff to last best part of a year, although some of the more recent kits are approaching the lower end 1/35 prices ,have just spent twenty two pounds on a second hand 1 /35 blimey thought I'd lost the use of my legs still i suppose at the end of the day its down to the individuals finance's.
For those waiting for the Airfix Avro Vulcan B2 that was due to available in November, it’s now been put back to March.

It’s a set that was already released as 35280, but is now discontinued, says Miniart’s web site. I guess they decided to update it with resin heads.

If the heads are as good as Hornet, and I don't think they will be, the only good point is you probably won't have to drill out the body to fit the heads .
On the MiniArt Facebook page - the resin heads!

Their other plus point will be that they don’t look like Hornet heads. I like Hornet heads, but they’re clearly Hornet heads — getting some by different sculptors so you have more variation stops everyone in your dioramas looking like they’re related.
I’m still not sure whether Hornet heads all look English, BTW, but they probably do.
Yes!

Really Jakko :smiling3:
Nice to see someone has finally thrown the jackal out there! Guess that one will get added to the stash at some point :smiling:

Think your right, only other version in 1/35 is the resin one by Accurate Armour, which cost a lot more than I would think the HB one will retail for.
