I can imagine the price is close to $600. However when you look at this you see this is a scale model, with hand grabs, opening hatches, true scale thickness on the lift rings. People will say the can get a Tamiya for this, but I think it is time to realize, other manufacturers are getting serious too. Taigen and Mato are starting to be leaders in this game. With the Mato release of a industry standard 2.4 ghz radio, I think we know where their head is at and what is coming.. Some people don't like metal as it is hard to bash, but if you want what they produce in metal then.................... Yahoo.

I still like the idea of all metal tanks

The electronics in this are interesting. It performs very similar to a Clark, and has that very loud light switch. Is it a Clark or has Mato done something themselves??

Edit

Well I guess the ebay listing clears that up. A Clark MFU. Still a good move as it is available RTR so a person won't have to do anything but add a battery and drive it.
