As maybe you've figured by now...
Alas, it was not...I wish they had, I would have been all over it...21CT did make one in 1/32...

Yah, it's built on the old Unimax Bravo Team version...the giveaway is the underside & the tracks, they're distinct from the BBI releases... Obviously it's not super-accurate, but it's pretty nifty nonetheless...and the price is a steal, can't say I'm not tempted... :) The guy selling it has a video...

Belated thanks for this link, PanzerArm...great to see a company producing a range of stuff beyond the obvious choices...but did they ever produce the 1/32 armor?...the scale line seems to have disappeared from their website...

That is a cool and thorough new makeover that the new King Tiger is getting, and with only around 1000 being made at a price of around a grand, I wonder if the old ones will lose too much value...but we know buying stuff as an investment in the crowded hobby collectible market is a little dicy, if y...

Awesome find!
I'm glad for you, bro, and to reinforce your feelings of joy take a quick look at the usual bunch of listings of JSI & BBI at utterly absurd prices on ebay...you got it cheaper than some of the ones with missing and broken pieces...sometimes Christmas comes early!
