It looks like Haya uk (Andrew) has some listed, I've noticed that these have also gone up in price by about £20 since I first saw them on his site though.
It's still a decent option mind as uk buyer's will save on the import tax which would have to be paid when buying from abroad, I was tempted myself but I've been working on a trumpeter and asiatam mix, it has independent track steering, engine and machine gun fire sounds, also both machine gunners have fibre optic cables installed through them for the mg flash.

Cheers, Lee. ImageImageImageImage

I know HERMAN sorry :/ this work/life thing keeps getting in the way and sucking all the time and energy out of me :headbang: I started it before Xmas and it has progressed slightly but not as much as I would have liked, hopefully get a thread set up for it in the near future :thumbup:

Cheers, Lee.

Hello Lee.
Did you have to change something on the box on which is the on/off switch, to get both figures placed up front?
Or do they fit there without any issues?
I do have the same guys laying around in my basement, so I was wondering if they would fit without any changes to the chassis?
Thnkz,
Rob

Hi Rob,

The upper hull on my build is from Trumpeter and the lower is from Asiatam, I have added all the electronics myself so there are no switches inside the hull or in the way, the figures fit perfectly, hope this helps :thumbup:
