RE: Tamiya question
I am building the Tamiya Panther G at this time and for your first Tank it will be fine and you will enjoy it. As the others have said there are a ton of hop-up items out there and it all depends on how much you can spend, not how much you want to spend? All parts are available for the errors in judgement from Tamiya USA. I am super detailing mine and I have settled in for the winter with the build. If I can be of any help feel free to contact me.
