Just saw this at the local hobby shop (LHS). It was real pricey though and I just didn't feel like spending that kind of money today...(I bought 300.00 dollars worth of books last week that include the new Hard cover Tiger II book from the prolific Trojca/PP combo, and the recent Panzer II and Panzer III Panzertracts)
I may still get it but I may need some convincing, anyone have it that wish to share their impressions or thoughts. Is it worth the $139.00 CND!?

Gents, and Laura.

Jamie, you've looked through it and you're still asking questions? Stop being a tight arse and buy the damn book. :thumb:

But seriously, I would have thought the page and half worth of veteran names (from both sides) that have contributed to this book, the brilliant photos and well written and researched text would have been enough to convince you.

Is it worth getting; yes I think it is. I'm sure you've spent more and received less, in the past.

Seriously, it will have you breaking out a DML Panther G to build one of the Stoumont panthers.

Great research and great shots, and loads of really great color info at the back.

Well not yet though as I can't seem to resist all the latest things tank related I will at some point in the future. What with the Writers Strike in Hollywood, (which affects the show I work on)- I'm having to cinch in the belt until the situation resolves it self. But once the money starts flowing again I'll pick it up no doubt.

Which show you working on James?

I've done a few movie deals the past years, mainly TV stuff for BBC and the History Channel.

Cinching in the belt during this season is something I hope will be over quickly. May you get back to the sets and receive plenty of overtime (yes, less model time but more $CDN for the nest egg).
