Collector's Note:

Forces of Valor’s 1/32 "Enthusiast" line is highly regarded for its heavy die-cast construction. Since this model is long out of production, it is a rare find for serious modern armor collectors.

Shipping: This is a heavy, fragile item. It will be handled and packed with extreme care to ensure the barrel and antennas arrive safely.
