Hi Pierluigi,

Congratulations on finally getting an Armortek Panther

. You will not be disappointed

. Is it built or in kit form

Thanks Antony

Hi Antony.
It is still in kit so I can get a lot of fun in assembling it (sorry, I mean : a lot of hard work

)

Hi Pierluigi,

You are going to love it. I am about to start on my next tank the Panzer III and I hope I have learnt alot from building the Panther but remember if you do get stuck there is plenty of help out there, just ask

Good luck, Antony

Hi Antony.
Thank you for the suggestion.
I know that "there is plenty of help out there, just ask" : I will keep it in mind.
Have a pleasant work with your Panzer III

Hi Pierluigi, I was saddened to hear about your first experience trying to buy an Armortek model, there are a few "A**holes" out there, but most are decent and only to willing to help, so have great fun with the build

Jeff

Hi Pierluigi
As we are a small group of modelers world wide I hope
that the (person ??) that has your money is made known to all
and is never aloud to post on this or any other model tank forum.

Enjoy your NEW Panther I am happy to help with any advice you need.

Regards

Derek

Hi Pierluigi

Good to hear you got a Panther kit and nice to have you among us other Panther builders now.
But sad to hear you lost money - sometimes an evil world out there...

Looking forward to see your build.

Kent

Hi Pierluigi

Sorry to see that someone in the US ripped you off, we are not all like that here. This person also used my parts in this scam and I would like to help you. I can offer you any of my Panther parts at a special price to try to lesson your loss a little. If you are interested please contact me direct. My only problem will be delivery which will take some time, but as you are only now starting your build that should not be a problem for you.

Best Regards
Mike

Pierluigi,

I would like to follow Mike's fine example and offer you any of the parts I made for the Panther at no cost to you. They include, Intake/Exhaust Armor Guards and Spare Track Links. PM me if you are interested in using any of those parts for your project.

Small gesture, I know compared to what you went through but like Mike, I'm embarrassed it was an American who did it!

Best wishes
Tim

Thank you again
