Hi Cruver Collector,

You can try rocousa.com. They stock quite a good range of Tamiya pre-builts in 1:48 scale. Prices are more reasonable. Their pre-built Panther Gs, Stug IIIs, Shermans and Jagdpanthers are going for a little shy of US$50 each. I have not bought from them so I am not sure of their shipping charges.

You can also try this this Hong Kong-based website called eTamiya.com. Good selection of Tamiya 1:48 pre-built armour. Most are going for around US$50. That's where I bought my M-10, a couple of Tiger Is (all in 1:48 scale) and an M1A2 Abrams in 1:35 scale. The Tigers cost around US$40. Shipping charges from Hong Kong to Singapore are also not too costly. However, I find that the prices on this website vary greatly. I paid US$120 or thereabouts for my Abrams, but the 1:35 Lepoard 2 A6 costs almost US$180.00, and the 1:35 King Tiger is selling for a whopping US193.00.

Hope that helps!
