Yes it does, the plastic feels good, not light or cheap, good detail!

Make sure whoever gets theirs built first to post pictures, this looked like a really neat kit.

My Elefant Jagdpanzer kit arrived today, Many Thanks to Jnewboy for all the work it took to get these kits shipped to the states.
After seeing pics of Andrews 1:18 card stock model, I wanted this tank. While not my scale of choice, this 1:16 kit looks great. You can see pics of the kit on the previous page.
I'll see how the week goes and maybe this weekend get started on the model.

Thanks for all your work Jon!
Normandy.

I also got my Elefant Tank kit today; and wanted to thank Jon (Jnewboy) for all the effort he put in to get these for us. Between making all of the arrangements and keeping on top of things till they were sent from China, Jon went above and beyond for us. Thank You!!! This is just a fantastic kit and will be a beast of a tank once it is put together.

I haven't started working on the model yet but I have been looking over the parts and instructions, this is going to be a fun build. The only thing is..............I'm having flashbacks to Pickelhaube's T-34, the track links and pins.

.....

The Elefant has 110 track links per side plus the pins...........oh boy.
All kidding aside its a very nice kit., I'm looking forward to working on it.

Count me in.Let's put a deadline to get some people in.I know is kind of tight right now for some people because of the Horten and the wife

,but let's try to explain to her that buying this later will cost more or wost, they may stop making them.
I know that many members will feel more confident,now that they see how good it went for the ones who already order.Ans also how satisfied they are.The price this kit is a real bargain.Specially with the amount of detail,size and parts that is has.
We need at least 3 more people

1958Zelda · Post by **1958Zelda** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 11:23 am

You can count me in for another.

Jnewboy · Post by **Jnewboy** » Tue Nov 01, 2011 7:44 pm

Thats 2, I guess Id buy another to possibly sell..... anyone else out there want a 1/16 Elephant??.....

Kind of a stupid question I guess..

TankAce · Post by **TankAce** » Wed Nov 02, 2011 6:39 am

Maybe someone can buy the Maus or any other 1/16 tank they sell,and we can still get the discount?

Jnewboy · Post by **Jnewboy** » Fri Nov 04, 2011 10:00 am

No date I know of but even if they did have a date it would be wrong, remember I was promised the elephant kits to be shipped out in mid july....

normandy · Post by **normandy** » Sun Dec 04, 2011 6:38 am

I started on the Elefant kit last night. The gun and turret assemblies are finished.
It's like any other plastic model kit......nothing difficult about it....just big.

For the static build you omit all the electronic installation steps, which saves time.
So on to the lower hull, wheels and tracks.....tracks will take most time in the assembly
of the kit.

Sorry no pics yet.........I'll see what I can do.
