RE: I remember when
Glad you guys are enjoying the hobby and your tanks. The more manufactures the better!
Chief - I'd love to see a breakdown of how you put $2,500 into a Tamiya Tiger. Assuming one spent $100 for a basic HL S&S Tiger, and $900 to get a Tamiya Tiger up and running ($700 for the kit and $200 for radio, charger, etc...). According to your math, you'd actually put MORE money into the Tamyia for aftermarket goodies than you would a HL!
That would be a very pretty kitty!
If you are talking about buying a Tamiya and replacing the electronics with ElMod, remember you could sell the DMD & MFU for a nice chunk of change.
