Boun Tanks- another HL disguise?

Post by 43rdRecceReg »

Leafing through tan-related stuff on Amazon UK, I came across several tanks listed under the 'BOUN' brand name. Some are 1:18 in size, another is an 'all metal' Pz 111, and around £800; yet another is clearly a Heng Long King Tiger.
Are these just part of an attempt to create fake 'diversity', as a marketing option, or is this another RC startup?

On Amazon there is a trend for the market place sellers to rebrand items as their own. This makes it very confusing and l've no idea why they do this. Amazon seem either unaware of the practice or simply don't care - probably both. eBay is safer. Our 'own sellers' safer still!

Description on the first photo clearly states that it's MATO and looking on details it is it:
