Hi Phil
I do have your e-mails thank you and sorry for not having replied as yet, I have had so many emails with the release of the King Tiger it is taking a long time to catch up. I will be back to you as soon as possible and will of course reply to everyone who has written over this last week.

With regards to the turrets we decided early on that we would be basing our model on King Tiger 104 at Bovington with the Henshel Turret, and the kit will come with this as standard. The price we have set for the King Tiger assumes a standard batch production of all parts, if we were to offer an either/or on the turrets it would mean that the price of the basic kit would have to be higher which would not be in the interest of the majority. We therefore concluded that rather than giving no option it would be better to offer the Porsche turret at an extra cost for those who wanted it rather than not offering it at all.
With regards to timescales, we will comence deliveries to those ordering the standard kit early 2009. As we get closer to this date we will post further updates.
With regards to the batch, as mentioned previoulsy this will be limited by a production capacity and based on the response we have had so far this will inevitably mean that we will sell out.
I will write to you directly with regards to payment options.
