Cyber Hobby Returns to the Battlefield

Cyber Hobby German Mid Production Sd. Kfz. 161 PzKpfw IV Ausf. H Medium Tank with Schurzen Side Skirts – “Red 624” [Snowy Exterior]

Years ago, when Dragon Armor was at the height of its popularity, we imported a sister line of 1:72 scale armor dubbed Cyber Hobby. Said line featured upscale packaging, limited edition collector cards and oftentimes was based upon vehicles tied to famous tank commanders such as Michael Wittmann and Otto Carius.

Today we learned that some of the latest Cyber Hobby releases will soon be available in the North American market, although supplies will be extremely limited. So limited that we doubt we will be able to list them on several of the after market retail sites we typically use to help promote our product portfolio.

Four vehicles are supposedly going to be made available in this initial batch – two based upon the Panzer IV Ausf J medium tank and another pair based upon the Panzer Ausf. H. We’ve listed the quartet of vehicles under the Cyber Hobby sub section found within our Dragon Armor category. Again, these products will be sold on a first come, first served basis. We’re not certain if the newest Cyber Hobby products will be sold using the same marketing materials as in the past including the limited edition collector cards and metal tins we alluded to earlier. As a guess, they will probably be sold in the black cardboard packaging Dragon has been using for its Neo Dragon Armor line and the vehicles may require some minor assembly work to complete the build.

One final thought. We may have to allocate the Cyber Hobby products should pre-orders exceed our expectations, all in an effort to be fair to as many of our customers as possible. So please don’t get upset if we have to pare down your order once we get a handle as to how many we will need to complete our orders. Also, just because we will be getting these four vehicles does not necessarily mean we will be receiving and selling the entire series henceforth since availability is largely determined by both the manufacturer and our distributor.
