HL making metal hulls now?

Post by B_Man »

A seller on eBay in Australia has what looks to be Asiatam metal Tiger hulls for sale that he is advertising as made by Heng Long. I've been in touch with him and he's confirmed they're not Asiatam hulls but are a new release from HL and they are apparently soon releasing metal hulls for all their tanks along with a variety of other metal upgrades. He is also selling sets of metal PIII wheels that I haven't seen before. Does anyone know anymore about this interesting new development?

The Kt's look pretty well modified as well,the Ardennes version is a little beat up for me but still unique. The ambulance is killer and prices are not to bad but he only ships down under, Sax
