I am fortunate to have one. It's a great model, Figarti really did a fine job! Since apparently the Germans had 25 built in total, if Figarti would produce a new different version, you may count me in to buy a second one. Maybe "Robert" that also shelled Anzio or one of the many that were deployed to the French coast that were targeting the British coastline as well as shipping in the Channel.

You guys are talking about buying one of these as if it,s a $1.98 toy. I think the first one sold for $1800 before shipping.
Good for you if you can afford this big ticket item!

Take up space and require some saving, but it sure would be a talking point. Robin.

Hey Rick did u see this? Ron {sm4}

 

[daruss]

I would love it, but it has to be done RIGHT, especially the troops.. For some reason the Figarti German troops look like they are wearing FIRST WORLD WAR helmets..

I missed out on it the first time thanks to the woman I was dating who banned it. My wife is totally cool with it now, so I will not miss it a second time!

Why did she ban it?

 

[Panzer ace]

Why did she ban it?

She said it was going to take up too much room. I made the mistake of telling her I wanted to put in the living room on display and that sealed.

I guess you won't do that again.

No way it is happening again! That is why I hope Figarti makes this monster again.
