Good Morning!
I'm looking at these tanks and trying to figure out why the camo painted one is 50+ dollars more as listed on the top color selection tab and only 5+ dollars more on the bottom color selection tab. This is the Toucan Site version. (needs that John Travolta looking side to side in confusion gif)

Looks like the top one is their "painted" and pseudo "weathered" and the bottom one is their "camouiflaged" painted version as well the tracks are painted. I'm guessing that's how they come from Tongde. But Toucan is known to charge hundreds for "special" crappy paint jobs on Heng Long tanks as well.

They're listed at a good bit more on the US site.

And none of them are in US stock-

MrChef!
Thank you for the Heads Up on this! Was bothering me today. I was going to give the Spouse the Big Eyes and see if it could get ordered today but I don't mind waiting. Still have plenty to do on the Tank Room List. Happy Holidays, my Friend!
