Default Torro Tanks are here!

Hey tankers,
I just wanted to let you all know the Torro tanks are here and available through Taigen dealers. The tanks imported were the:
KV-2 754r German captured variant (metal version)
King Tiger Henschel turret (metal version chassis+turret)
Sturmtiger (plastic desert yellow)
Sturmtiger (metal version with ambush camo)

All of these are available in either airsoft or infrared versions, are RTR, and have the same great support you get from all the Taigen tanks A few of our regular dealers have stocked up a few like Artistic Hobbies and Immortal Hobbies so make sure to contact them or your LHS for more info. Prices can be found on our FB page, I'm not going to spam them here.
The King Tiger is turning out to be my favorite so far. I actually rolled it twice while I was playing the other day and it didn't suffer a single problem. I was actually even rock crawling with it hehe. This KT has the new road wheels with bearings already installed, the Henschel metal turret, a turret brace for the upper hull, a metal chassis, and adjustable track tensioners like our Tiger 1 chassis does. Coming in close is that Sturmtiger though, it really blends in with the sand here
If you have any questions please ask, you guys know I'm always ready to help.

What electronics come preinstalled in them? The Taigen 2.4 GHz, or something else?

Yes our system is installed
2.4GHz all RTR with smoke, sound, and recoil. IR models will have barrel recoil as well except for the ST.

We decided not to bring over the wooden boxes to keep the costs down

Check out the FB, I don't want to spam prices here
Your dealers will most likely have better prices so ask the regulars here first like Artistic and Immortal.
