New Jagdpanther on e-bay WOW

pickelhaube · Post by **pickelhaube** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 2:12 pm

Hey guys check this out. E-bay # 270215603235. If any of you guys can post this auction so all you have to do is click on it. I would thank you.

What is this guy thinking? It looks like a 1/32 scale mantlet and barrel on a 1/18 chassy. The fighting structure looks like it belongs on a Jagdtiger. He says he has sold some of these all over the world. OH MY !!!!!
Hopefully the customizer is nobody on this board.
I am not trying to slander but gee whizz there aint nothin' right on it.

Thanks Echoes !!!!!
Does this guy even have a clue how these are supposed to look like? He has hatches were there should be none and on and on.
Two words.

BUYER BEWARE

I think he sould come up with his own name for it, something like Sturmpanther or something

It looks wierd, but if one uses it not as a Jagdpanther and perhaps changes the gun, it could be some sort of imaginary German armor. The seller obviously did not consult any photographs, profiles, reference books, or even the excellent 21c and FOV 1/32 models of the Jagdpanther. Too bad

I'm sorry, but this guy obviously saw the other 1:18 Jagdpanther projects on eBay and concluded 1:18 JAGDPANTHER = MONEY. He is probably counting on the gullability of some newer eBayers to make some coin off of this piece of junk. It even says in his description that he has made examples for "collections" around the world.

Only thing that upsets me is that he butchered perfectly good 1:32 and 1:18 tanks to make it!

maybe this it the way hillbillies do a jagdpanther

It's not all bad. Take a look at the wheels. Those are GREAT Jagdpanther roadwheels....

exether_mega · Post by **exether_mega** » Thu Feb 28, 2008 4:53 pm

reading ebay announce, he say he made 6 other crap like this (with perfect jagdpanther roadwheels...) and also hand signed. Soo much time wasted...

Ok, I have looked at it hard and long. There is nothing right with this custom. But if he takes this junk off and put the original turret back on it may sell for $100

I wonder who is the guy who has bid on it. Does he have a clue? Is he a buddy of the seller?

Tonight on the History Channel, the new series "What if German Tank Designers Smoked Crack?"

Seriously though, the superstructure is about 20 feet tall.

Looks like some sort of armored snow plow really.

Gosh . Darn It !!!

The truth is out. It is time to start up the bidding war. I might as well start bumping up the bidding to see what the reserve is.
