Happened upon this tonight while surfing the internet on the Asiatam site and thought it might spark some interest for those who have sought this beast it's in thier new products section.

I don't these come up often and have no idea what they are asking. Looks very nice
Cheers

Some coins about large scale RC tanks are:
1. they are bulk and heavy, hard to move around
2. expensive

Is there much in the way of upgrade parts or accessories for 1:10 tanks? I've really only seen 1:24, 1:16 and 1:6 before.

I've no idea. But for a gent looking for this particular piece of armour its like Christmas morning!
Apparently these panthers are sought after pieces
Maier I assume made these and they are quite unique.

It's not listed in 'New items', Carl. It's in 'Panzer Zubehör 1:10'..or tank accessories/parts, in other words.
There's an interesting thread on Maier's all-metal Panthers here, also there's a warning that any offers on Ebay.de are not likely to be the genuine item, as Maier's firm went bust ages ago.

Maybe Mr Tam has an almost complete oldie on offer for parts...
My own experience of Asiatam has not been a great one...so far

Yes it appears "old or used". Nice for a good chat I guess

The 1/10 scale is pretty big in Germany, but never really took off here.
Spares & upgrades could be an issue in UK.
In my mind it is almost the perfect scale as the models have real presence but can still be picked up.
