Happy to see new incoming model of u-boot in big scale. :D
I just don't like that ugly welds on turret. :'( Hopefully the rest of U-XXIII will look better  ???

2) how much will it cost.

Hi all

On the following site a release date of mid March is indicated.

Won't be too long now...
Although this scale is too big for me. Besides, I already have the SN 1/72 kit lying around...
