I don't see anything on your website about these tanks. How does anyone order them?

This Taigen tank still comes with a lot of plastic parts, are you sure it's the exact same tank in your local store, or could you be mixing up this one with one of the actual completely *all* metal tanks (metal upper hulls, full metal turrets, metal road wheels, etc.), that usually are the ones selling in that much higher price range?

Just curious, because if it's the exact same Taigen ... what a rip-off ... run far, far, far away !!!!!

Nope not all metal, first thing i checked.
Plastic top, plastic wheels, plastic track, plastic turret, plastic almost everything.
They were VERY proud that it had a metal gearbox and metal hull.
Barrel is unknown, i didn't check.

Good place for japanese supplies at a 'ok' price, but for model kits, i find it pricey. Same for R/C stuff.

It's the same place that sells you chinese r/c RTR tugboats for $350 lol

Does the Tiger use the metal hull with torsion bars and metal swing arms?

Other than metal sprockets and tracks on the Pershing, what are the other upgrades on the Taigen?

Is there a list of the various Taigen versions of each tank and the upgrades in each version?

Oooh a Pershing... Cool! Im curious if it's more like the Mato "Metal Upgrade" style HL tanks, with metal HL gearbox's and drive sprockets, that they market on eBay and their website...

Or has Taigen done what they did with the Tiger, and basically include all the Asiatam (asiatam "style"?) metal upgrades to make a really nice, upgraded HL... I've never heard of the Pershing Taigen till just now!

I got your e-mail. You paid a good price at Funky Toys. I never heard of that store until your e-mail.

It's a good chunk cheaper than the place i went too to 'try' to buy a R/C tank (the big shop on Decarie.. yeah THAT one).

I ended up making my purchase at Immortal Shop since he is in Canada and Curtis (FreakyDude) gives great service.

If i was state side, i would purchase from Big Boys Toys Airsoft.
