Re: When are they going to start showing up?

Diecast Direct has just posted these for pre-order, but at $45 a pop! Is that right?

If this is Admiral's new pricing regime, I've just been priced out of the market. Hopefully, it's an error by DD.

I was prepared to pay high price for this pieces (about $30USD for Japanese tank and $25USD for 88), but not that high. Dragon will undoubtedly release Su-85 and Su-100 since they are planning to release kits of them in the near future, and 88mm is way too iconic piece of artillery to be ignored for so long.

If this is a harbinger of things to come from Admiral, they'll better stick with 1:43 car models, where the market is more than willing to pay $45 - $50USD per model of mass produced diecast or resin vehicle.

Regards,

Sergey
