These ( 1/15 scale ) were very expensive when they first came out. They are expensive now.

Around $350 for the kit .

The guy states that they fit well with 1/18.

THEY DO NOT .

Look at the Stug next to the Tiger.

It is almost the same size. :shock: :shock: :shock:

But with starting bid at $150 or so it is worth it !!

John Wayne : Mine was taller

1/15 is to big to be displayed with 1/16 stuff and insane next to 1/18.

What a paint job :? Gives new meaning of the word "pro built" :roll:

I thought that these didn't have an mg through the front on the opposite side to the drivers compartment? Please correct me if i am wrong.

I have a Bandai 1:15 Sturmgeschutz IV, the detail on it is very good. In the years before 1:18 XD (BXD) I
ordered a Bandai 1:15 Panzer IV F thinking it would be as detailed...........uh no way, the most expensive
piece of $#!+ :shock: I ever bought.
Anyhow this older model is very nice as a stand alone piece. As Matthew and Jon have stated 1:15
is waaaay to big for 1:18.

the kit... http://www.murrellsmodels.co.uk/Vehicles/Gun4.htm


RE: the front machine gun I have never seen any photographic evidence showing one in that location.

The one in your link is the pro-built one. This one on ebay right now looks a lot like those "pro-built" ones that seem to be based on it being glued together and given a basic paint job and nothing else.

Pro apparently means a lot of different things on ebay.

You are right Paul, I have never seen that either, very strange.
