Good work, Lee. The schwimmwagen can be hard to find. I have the afrika korps kubel on the shelf waiting for me to RC it. I have the losi crawler and the thread from when Ausf did his, I just have to get off my duff and get around to it. :haha:

Thanks Gary, I was lucky enough to buy the kit from Eddyk a good while back now, unfortunately the two halves of the tub had already been glued together so I've not tried to rc it :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.

Even as a static piece it's a gem.

For me the new schwimmwagen will be $158 euros (no vat) but shipping is $75 euros. They say two to three day delivery, but they use fedex and to say i'm not a fan of fedex is an understatement of truly epic proportion. I sent an email to torro and asked if they can ship by any other means, and as soon as they respond I'll pre-order. If I have to I'll use the fedex. I've been waiting a very long time for this little puppy. Now if someone would only do a decent 1/16 RC jeep!!

Dave ( forgebear ) said that he will be stocking it Gary so that maybe another option for purchasing and shipping :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.
