Yup, definitely more detailed, looks about the same size and yet $40 cheaper than the HHH.
Not happy about that at all.

This post makes me upset about the HHH again..Maybe they will drop the cost after pre-orders...

Came here to say the exact same thing. Skarre 3 looks as big as the hooch hauler, if not bigger. How the hell did the HH end up coming in at 40 dollars more expensive?

I just got an email with a picture of it beside a wraith engine and it made the wraith engine look small. It being Skarre 3.

We must be looking at different models. Skarre 3 does not look more detailed to me. In fact, the model is a little disappointing. Everything just kind of blends together into a giant pool of brown and purple slurry on that thing. HHH has well-defined parts and looks very imposing. I don't think there is even a comparison to be made.

Much harder to pick out details with a dark on dark paint scheme. Even if we assume for a moment it's got fewer parts, and that's what drives up costs, the additional parts and cost are a failure of design in the HHH, IMHO.

That thing is gorgeous! And yes, huge! I love the direction they’re going with these new huge bases. IMO they’re exactly what PP is going for.

I'm guessing it's the 50+ parts that PP decided was necessary to make the HHH while only needing 26 for Skarre. Le sigh

Yeah, it's the parts. But that was THEIR poor decision, not ours. When you design something for consumers, you design to a price point. Otherwise you end up with the Juicero. I could see it going a bit above the usual price point, but double is obscene.
Just talked to PP customer support, they agreed to allow me to cancel the order.

So how is the driver controlling the HHH?... it looks like he is supposed to be holding reigns connected to the bears but I see non on the model itself...

Greenjello... what are your thoughts on the HHH model?
How about the pricing?
