It's an orange box release..so I will be interested to see what they sell for.

least it's not just a repop of a existing Tiger w/ the Tiger Aces added.

But this move does kill the idea of Draggin doing a new tooling any time soon.

It is... This very same Tiger was earlier released as 61020. Sorry to disappoint.

I do not expect new molds any soon. With the exception of Minichamps, everybody else (Dragon, Tamiya, Hobby Master) stopped manufacturing anything bigger than 1/72 :(

yea I realized that after looking at the catalog. I only had 2 tigers, the S1 and Leningrad ones.the Late models I never bothered with.

unless this set sells cheap..well under the first edition $60+ price

Although it will sink the price of the original Tiger, as now the rarity of the model is gone. That happened to alot of the CH Orange Reboxes that were horded stash kits. Once the 29.99 CH kit came out, the old DML kits, which didn't have all the bells and updates just become old kits.
