Ohh...I thought you was in talks with Malaysian dealer. Stuff from Singapore usually cost more. HL & full metal MATO tanks (using as an example) from Singapore cost more than the same tanks available from our LHS. I read the HL Abrams tanks will come to Malaysia through Singapore (same thing with HL Leo 2 when it was released) but I checked with one store here (pre-order & come with upgraded gb) & the price quite lower than Singapore.

BTW, I'm waiting my seller to get back to me whether they can get Taigen Tiger I lower metal hull for me. It's possible his supplier getting it from Singapore dealer.

Great Patriotic War JS-2 Tank Monument shoots Abrams.

Testing the HL Tamiya Taigen IMEX 1/16 scale rc tank hybrid build using the Tamiya electronics package with the Tamiya infrared battle unit.

The IMEX 4:1 gearboxes work really well for precise maneuvering during infrared battle, like them a lot and did not add my 380 motors, nice mod, but not needed in my opinion for how this tank will be battled on a relatively tight field at The American Military Museum (LA Tanks): http://www.tankland.com/

And "bossman", ERIK is an awesome IMEX Employee, he put together a fine Abrams package for us rc tankers to play with, recommend you give him a raise immediately, he earned it!

I will be back for the Jagdtiger.

A collector picked up his new Abrams M1A2 rc tank today.

First, we traded infrared shots with this awesome, great running, "up armored", Iraqi Army T-55 (Tamiya-Hooben Hybrid built by a modeler in Connecticut). A fine pair of enemy models sitting side by side, for sure!

Congratulations on your new rc model.

John
