I wish they had an Action grade one, that's a lot of money. Another really cool piece I won't be getting.

Pics from Badcat show the Elefant looks good, but don't you think the truck is only slightly crude? The figure sure does, and there's nothing really distinctive about it...
Just my own opinions.

I think both vehicles look fine
The machine gunner from the truck is the same one of the half track

I've got a Deuce and an Elefant on the way from Foxhole, just got UPS shipping notification this AM, they will be here next Thursday, and I'll try to post some pics soon thereafter unless someone beats me too it.

* I think some a you guys are going to be disappointed about the "deuce & a 1/2" , and I would'nt be going "hog wild" on it either.

* According to what Matt @ Foxhole Toys told me about it ,.. it's going to be a real disappointment and is not worth the pri¢e FoV has on it.

1) The canvas top is not detachable etc. .....

2) [+] > On the other hand ,.. the Elefant does not come w/ a commander figure or , ie; new figures but the hatch or hatches do open on it. ... Which , I don't care about a figure cause I'll just use a few of my Can.Do Tiger Aces figures in it.

* I just secured me a loose "Deuce" used for photo ops @ a mu¢h more reasonable pri¢e.

............ I suspect that FoV will introduce a 2nd edition w/o a top w/ more cargo access next time around possibly w/ seated figures.

I'm pretty sure the pics posted right now at Badcat are of actual production examples, not factory promo shots.... http://www.badcataviation.com/us25toncatr1.html Looks pretty good to me.

Ordered my 2 1/2s from Foxhole Toys and got the shipping notification yesterday, but I had pre-ordered the Elefant back in June from The Flying Mule for $44.99 and they apparently haven't gotten it in stock yet. Damn you irregular distribution!!
