Previously announced, Hobby Boss shares photos of what is inside the box.
From Hobby Boss: ”T29 heavy tank is the United States the development of a heavy tank, in 1947 October the first T29 experimental tank prototype was created, as it was originally designed for use against heavy tanks, so has enhanced the front armor and power can be comparable to " King tiger " of long tube gun body, a 7.62 mm the top of a M2HB M1919 machine guns, anti-aircraft guns, and two's M2HB coaxial machine gun. Since then, T29 heavy tank are derived with strong artillery equipment 155mm T30 heavy tank gun and 122mm T34 heavy tank, so that the U.S. and Soviet tanks can be IS series against the heavy tank.These tanks, U.S. postwar M103 tank's predecessor, even can be considered M1 "Abrams” tanks direct ancestors.”

I was about to post that it may be a pre-order price, but it was otherwise when I checked Hobby Easy. Its a good deal.

Hi, price is low because hobbyboss wants to gain market share to fend off upcoming takom releases for t29/t30 They always do this like their lower than normal priced nagmashot to fend off tiger models nagmashot series.

And now in stock... As for the price at Hobbyeasy, I thought it was just a non accurate price listing for pre-order when I ordered mine back in November, but its accurate $45 AUD inc. postage, happy as.

and we modellers get better deal and better price on kits. At least I believe I'm not the only one who feel happy about this.Say hi to free market economy!

seems the competition motivated companies to show better quality and even better price if one of the competitor can make better budget control by selling with lower price but still gain money. Quite normal.

Just curious...what exactly is a "nagmashot"?
JAN 09, 2017 - 09:56 PM
Jeez, that paragraph makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. They really need to employ a natural English speaker to review the entries BEFORE printing them.

LINK "The Nagmashot or Nagmasho't is the first modern heavy Armored Personnel Carrier (APC). It was converted from retired Sho't Kal (upgraded Centurion) main battle tank hulls, in response to the shortcomings of conventional APCs in combat. The name is a combination of the Hebrew term for an APC ("Nagma"), and the Hebrew word for "Whip" ("Sho't", which was the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) name for their upgraded Centurion tank, from which the Nagmasho't was converted)." Don't thank me, thank Google and good old copy-&-paste / Robin
