I haven't seen this mentioned so I thought I'd throw it out there...

At the current USD/Yen exchange rate, this kit will cost over $450.00.

 

MFH has always made excellent automotive models, primarily racing cars in limited runs.

 

Is there a place for a kit like this considering the current economy?

 

Thoughts or opinions?

It will be interesting to see if a model that will fit in a shoe box at that price will make it in the marketplace. Currently there are ship kits on the market with more coming close to that price range. However, they are MUCH larger (1/200 scale). There is a lot to be said for the incredible detail the kit provides, but is all that detail worth the price to potential buyers? It will be interesting to see.

And here we have yet another Tiger tank!

 

For that price, I'd better be able to add some gas and start it up. It should shoot as well; then I could take it deer hunting. :army7: :smiley2: :D

At that price I don't see it as a big seller. Mark's right that thing better be able to run down my wife's little dog an kill it. Hum :smiley15: Maybe it is worth the price!!!!

I am positive that they will hit their target market and sell upward of their projection. C'mon, it's 1/35 Nazi Tiger...there are loads of droolin' fools with no other lives who will gobble them up.
