Yalım, I'm with you! Three very attractive versions that have to be owned, so 2013 promises to be a very expensive modelling year!!!
Stephen, they charge about 10-15 EUR for a 1/72 model, depending on the box content - photo etched, resin, etc. I suppose that the Cobra won't be more expensive than that.

Dunno, maybe they box them multiple like some other kits. Eitherway they worth it. On the other hand I recieved a Matchbox Cobra from a hoarder friend who decided he won't build it. Guess who's building an AH-1G for the gunship campaigne...yeeeeha!

I was all over that the second I saw it announced. It looks like MPM have done a really good job with it and the weapons selection is very nice! I'll be adding one to the stash just as soon as I can.
I'll still build the Matchbox Cobra, just for nostalgia's sake.
