But you should now that a version with interior details has been announced for release in June.

 

does hannants.co.uk have it in stock?

 

Hannants seems to have stopped keeping Italeri in stock. I browsed through their webshop today and they only had 7 Italeri kits left !

It shouldn´t be too hard to find the 6-rad in England though. And if you can´t find it in your local shop, then you can order it from at least two UK based webshops :

Tamiya 1/48 scale tanks and AFV kits announced for release in 2005 :

- M4A1 Sherman
- M10 Tank Destroyer
- Universal Carrier Mk.II

Hmm ... strange, that´s all Allied stuff !?

 

More news :
