says its got fully upgraded metal parts what you guys think? would i be able to upgrade it more or is that fully upgraded
think im going to go for the grey dont like the yellow camo is the grey authentic? i could allway re paint it once i get better at modeling and get more tanks

That's a pretty good price. Using my currency converter, that works out to be $350.00 US funds. I can't buy a full metal Taigen Tiger with the 360 degree turret for any price in the US. Again, take the warnings that people are giving you about dealers. Most of my tanks are Taigen, two of them metal versions, I've been very happy with all of my Taigen tanks. I have a single HL Sherman, it two is a fine runner with it's upgraded metal tracks, idlers, drive wheels, and 2.4GHZ radio. Good luck.

Link to Torro. This is the Tiger I bought and I love it.

I own a Tamiya, 2 taigens and as of today a Torro as well. If you don't want to build a kit, I'd say go Torro, unless that's out of reach funding wise in which case the Taigen tanks are still great buy. Good luck with whatever you choose.

nitor tec said this about the tagian
"other upgrades are a recoiling barrel with flash effect .
this can be retrofitted , 360 revolving turret and upgraded smoke machines
all available from stores on ebay"

For the Tiger???.........not much difference except the Torro comes in a wooden crate ....Though there is a chance now...the Taigen comes with better gearboxes
