The $8000 King Tiger

Anyone got $ 8,000 to spare? This is a kit, but it assembles like the real thing. Check out their site! I want one !!!!

Re: The $8000 King Tiger

Amazing, but I'll wait for the ultimate diecast AFV, a 1:1 scale King Tiger that you can drive and fire dummy shells at the neighbors. I wonder which manufacturer will step up to the plate and capture the long dormant market for "the real thing"? Sure hope it isn't IXO. Could be a real headline grabber for Corgi, if it wakes up after its prolonged nap and decides to reenter the AFV arena. Wonder what the MPG rate is on those babies, however.

Wow! Now that's one I'd like to own. At this pace, they'll soon be putting out my ideal model---the 1:1 scale King Tiger.

A life size King Tiger? Would that be radio-controlled? I'll commission a static 1:1 King Tiger is I strike the lottery this weekend!
