SxSW has begun in Austin. Although the music segment has not yet kicked off downtown is so crowded that it looks as if it had. Thus, you will probably need (a real) one of these to get around. Yes, it's a King & County 1:30 scale Panzer III from KingsX for $119.



A brand-new version of a now-retired, early AK release. This model has lots of extra detail, a great sand-weathered paint finish and comes with a half-body crew figure in the turret. It is in the marking of 15th Pz. Division.

Fit it at the bottom of this page, daring a Prius to cut it off:

If that didn't work, let try something even bigger and with more firepower. That's right, we're circling the convention center is a full size instead of a 1:35 scale Dragon Sd.Kfz.184 Elefant 1./s.Pz.Abt.653 ~ 1st Elefant from Hobby Buy for $47.99.

Whatever happened to Franklin Mint? Follow this MAP (it's mandatory) to find the 1:48 scale P-40 Warhawk - U.S. Army from Prestige Hobbies for $49.99.
