Hobby Master 1/72 Tanks Coming soon?

Post by Juneau@1 » Sun Apr 29, 2007 1:43 pm

Anyone heard when the first round of 1/72 Hobby Master tanks will arrive in the US? There has not been any dates given yet, except the vague arriving soon.
Thanks,
Eric

I am wondering about the first release of the KV-1 and Cromwell. Although the third release by July looks promising for the 1st release being here soon.
Thanks,
Eric

Thanks. By the way, your website is far better than any manufacturers webpage!

Can't wait for the HM KV's, especially the KV-II, these should be awesome. I would love to see HM produce a JS-II as well. Any idea which online distributor will likely be the first to have these new offerings available??

Sorry, I don't know the answer to this. If I didn't I still couldn't say because I want to remain neutral and not give the appearance of favoring one retailer over another. I hope you understand my position.
It is because of this that I occassionally move the links to retailers around on my Retailer's page. I try to give equal time for each shop and list them at the top of the page.

No problem at all, I understand completely. The only reason I asked was so I could keep an eye out at the likely suspects website for these to appear for sale. 8)
