Can someone tell me which HBG tank is the same as the OOB German Panther, or has one not been made yet?

Is the one on the new German Axis Minor 2 set suppose to replace it?

I’m just confused on the names of the tanks.

Thanks for any help! :-)

“The same” in what sense?  The one that’s closest in sculpt size?  The one which representes the same real-life Panther tank?  As far as I know, the only tanks which HBG has produced or is in the process of producing are:

German & Axis Minors Supplement Set 1
38t Light Tanks
Panzer III Medium Tanks
Stug IIIG Tank Destroyers

WW2 Germany Expansion Set
Panzer II Light Tank
Tiger 1 Heavy Tank

WW2 Axis Minor 2 (Not yet available)
PzIVG Medium Tank

Amerika (Not yet available)
Panther II
GW Panther
E-100
Flakpanzer

Do we have an HBG equivalent is probably how I should have asked the question?

Sorry, should have made my question more clear!

I think that at the moment the answer is no, but the Amerika game is supposed to have a “Panther II” (whatever that is).

OK, thanks Marc! :-)

The Axis Minors 2 set is also going to have a Panther tank in it. HBG removed the Tiger since we already got it in the German Expansion set. The Tiger I still shows up in the photo gallery on the Axis Minors 2 page, but that is just because he hasn’t gotten around to updating it yet. Been too busy getting out the Japanese Expansion sets and trying to get Amerika finished.

Ok, cool, I was wondering about that. Thanks for the info! :-D

Panther II is the next generation, instead of the 75L70 gun , it was to mount the 88L71 (same gun as the Tiger II).

About how long do you expect before the new Japanese pieces are available individually?

[Yavid]

Congratulations! What color or colors did you get? :-D

Well, I’m glad you got them. :-D

@Yavid:

The Japanese coaster is by far the best. Red disk on one side, rising sun on the other; looks really cool. Sitting on my desk at work right now. I have a friend here who is into Japanese television, culture and cars and he was kinda jealous of it. I think I might order one for him next time I get some pieces.

Yes, I agree. It is my favorite as well. :-D
