Well I was thinking of getting rear idler adjusters for my Tiger when I spotted this, seeing as the idlers are the best part of £20, and I can get the whole upgraded lower hull for £90, this seems even more of a bargain.

If all of these manufacturers actually worked together they could produce all of these tanks to a higher spec than Tamiya in kit form. Elmod elctronics, RCTank hulls, even optional Creeping Death turrets, plus all of those other little metal bits that we all buy. If Heng Long supplied the basic hulls, and could knock out the electronics at mass production prices, I reckon the kits could be on the market for £200? We can all dream.

So, has anyone taken delivery of a Tiger hull yet? and are they as good as they look?

And has anyone else noticed how Elmod have put up all of their prices?? :-\
