This monster tank is 10 inches long and over five wide.

It has been out of production for a year or two and vanished from the market.

Now it is back from Hobby Link Japan. The only sad thing is the price to the UK which with the bad exchange rate, shipping and customs fees will make the kit cost about £100 to get it over here.

Why can't my wife see sense and bring over a spare suitcase filled with them?!?!?

Wow. That is gorgeous. So detailed, I thought it was an Abrams at first.

It's larger than an Abrams.

The kit is a joy to build, according to the reviews I have read.

Obviously with a bit of clever adaptation it would make an awesome Baneblade style vehicle for Imperial Guard.

I have that set sitting in its box ready to be built, and judging by the parts, it's going to be a really fun build. Picked it up when I visited a friend in Japan last year... kinda wishing I'd got two though. Oh well, maybe next time!

Is that based on an actual Tank, or is it a flight of relatively grounded fancy?

It's a tank out of Mobile Suit Gundam Universal Century.

I had this kit, its great. Kinda wish I I had built it and not sold it. Oh well, I made $$ on it since it went OOP while I had it.
