MAC FELSING AuthorHolger,
The prices I found ranged from about 380 to 475 in USD. Kit 00906 has the Henschel turret, and then the one Thomas Mayer mentioned has both. The kit is amazing, the drive sprockets are metal. It has two metal versions of the barrel and a plastic one as well. Lots of room for detailing. As good as the 1:16 T34/76 and T34/85 trumpeter kits are, this is in a whole different class.
