Thanks!

Excellent. I don't need the crane, but certainly do want a Ferdinand with such full interior details.

Wait, even the crane bundle is not available yet. (https://www.scalemates.com/kits/amusing-hobby-35a030-sdkfz184-ferdinand-and-16t-strabokran--1167933)

So by next June, do they mean in a year, or in a week?

Interiors are IMO only useful with some large hatches, through which we can admire it, and the Ferdinand does hatch several hatches, especially the large rear one.
Great to have this kit hit the market soon.

Welcome news indeed! I've been looking forward to this announcement for some time now and now that it has been announced as a separate release my anticipation only grows! Soon (?) I can finally abandon all thought of building the obnoxious and incomplete Jaguar set that I bought years ago and dreaded building ever since!

While not a fan of clear parts, some strategically placed magnets could hold the upper hull pieces in place and allow them to be removed to show the interior.

And while this stand alone offering is nice I am waiting for the crane too.

Same here, not counting on the clear parts, but I won't glue the top covers or something.

I actually have a Dragon Elefant somewhere, with an aftermarket interior set, but it's nowhere this level of detail.

Hope they include decals for the interior as well.

I'm really looking forward to this one and was planning on displaying it as a cut-away in a plexiglass case to do away with dusting. My earlier King Tiger is displayed this way.
UPDATE: A year and a half later and I'm still looking for a source for this elusive (non-existent?) kit. Frustrating.
