This appears to be another case of a resin kit manufacturer that has lost touch with reality. At $30 its twice the price of a UM kit,
and still more than Attack. Considering the Fujimi 38(t) has been around since the 1970s, it's not like we are all desperate to add a
38(t) to our collections, is it? If you are going to make a resin kit, then it either has to be cheap for wargaming (which it isnt), or filling a market niche where there is no injection kit or only a poor one (and there isn't). This lot have missed the bus.
That's my 2 cents.
