Huntsman Spider Tank Price increase
« on: August 07, 2008, 09:11:08 PM »
I know a few of you on here are interested in Ramshackle Stuff, so Im putting this up for anyone who has been eyeing the Huntsman Spider Tank we do. Its currently £20 for a HUGE model, I mean this thing is massive. The thing is the same size as a certain other compaines recent very large scifi tank model ;)!

Anyway Im putting up the price on it. From the 18th august (the monday after next) it will be £35. The darned thing takes me over two hours to cast, demould and pack. Added to that the material costs and its just not cost effective.

As I said above, if anybody has been thining of getting one, now is the time. Up untill the 18th it will continue to be its frankly ridiculous low price...

I think that's fair. I always said it was too cheap, which would be why I bought one straight away!  :D

Curtis,
£35.00 is still good value for such a cool kit. I'm sure you will have plenty of takers.

Thanks for your support on this desision!

I think releasing the HST at the promotional price has been a great marketting stunt. Loads of people have bought stuff after visint the site just to look at it! Hurrah!

At the moment Im working on a set of really modular parts. Its coming along nicely! Im going to do a buggy and a truck plus loads of extra triddlins to go with them. I should scan some of my concept drawings...
