Thats' funny, no way my wife would have let me spend more either, but then I really don't even think I could convince MYSELF to spend tamiya money on a toy tank, much less you guys that have several. For me the rc tank thing is a wimsy, sort of a hey thats really cool, I think I'll pick one up for grins and maybe mod it to look better. I have far too many other things to buy (including food and gasoline) for my 2 year old daughter and pregnant wife, then to dropping close to a grand (including radio and combat module)on some tamiya.
HL all the way for me baby.
ps they are pretty easy to fix.

I think it's too bad that there isn't more in the mid-range. If somebody put out a reasonable quality 1/16 tank in the $200-$300 bracket, I would pick one up in a heartbeat.
Well you know, some would spend $500.00 on a brandnew Tamiya Tiger full option while I used that money on a set of brandnew Galfer Wave rotors and steel braided lines for my GSXR 600 .. and another $900.00 for a new Alpinestars leather suit (this was a month before I got married which was like 4 months ago . Every lifestyle is different and everyone is an individual .
Very true... considering that it's entirely possible to drop $10 grand on an R/C tank!
