New Tongde M113

Post by Kaczor »

Announcement of new M113 in various configurations from Tongde. I wonder if they're true to scale; their Bradley was closer to 1/15.

I guess I really don't have any incentive to finish my 3D printed M113 now...unless it's out of scale like the Bradley.

That's different product. From Hooben. Tongde M113 will be MUCH cheaper :D

After seeing what my colleague did, it looks like a toy for children in a sandbox.
Just a "matchbox".
And they don't have the conscience to ask for a lot of money for a toy...?

This is roughly on par with Heng Long. And as has been proven many times on the forum, even a cheap toy can be turned into a beautiful model. Tonge models are inexpensive and provide a good base for modifications. Moreover, they produce unique models, not just another Tiger. Their Churchill is great.

Here you said the right key phrase!
But 600 bucks, Karl 600 bucks is too much.....
I would agree that it could be used as a basis for creativity, when the price was 200 bucks.
But to remake a toy for 600 US dollars.....
I'll put it under a glass dome!
