That is still the case.. The dealers were only alloted a few at the show, which heightened the need to get one..

Huber 1/72 Vehicle

Sadly, dealers seem to have bought ALL of the vehicles and none were available even to conventioneers. Lowest price I saw at the show was $50.00 and highest over $100.00. As I like the 1/72 vehicles but refused to pay a scalper's price, I felt this was a major blunder on Dragon's part.

As much as I like these Tank destroyers, I can't see spending $50.00 for one when most Dragon armor can be had for $12.00. I'll just use 1/72nd scale model kits like I have done in the past($6.00).
