Nice looking tanks to be sure and I'll be getting at least 2,the 1st will be Oddball's from Kelly's Hero's the 2nd will be close to Fury.
Yeah...I think the IRs are in more demand...just because HL didn't release that version in the US...if they did ...I think there would be a more balanced supply ...so I'm guessing if they order it ..it will be more expensive ?

He didn't say there was a difference in price and was kinda shocked I even asked about the IR versions. :haha:

BUT as it turns out I just found out there is a group not an hour drive from me but the girl at the hobby shop doesn't have any info the manager Scott does and supposedly they have regular battles! So once I find out details it looks like I may be going to war!

Nooooo. Thats why I said I want 2, one of each version. Also the Tiger that is coming from Palepainter will be fitted with an IR set up and also get all new metal running gear and hull. Gonna use his upper and build my own lower to make it is tough as my current Tiger. Then I have a BUNCH of Tiger parts coming in so I should be able to build 1 maybe 2 more Tigers! At this rate Poland better watch out! :haha:

Oh nothing is straightened out, she still asks why I need more toys and that she "forbids" me getting any more. Yeah right! Like I told her before I'm her husband not her kid. :lolno: But I'm gonna buy what I want when I want to buy it! I'm the one who works outside in ANY weather and gets PAID for it and if I want to fill my house with R/C tanks then we'll have a house full of R/C tanks. :haha:
