I would appear the A4 is re-released now:

Whether it's good news or not to you guys

Just wait couple more months till spare parts are out

LOL figures.....

no doubt there will be rather a large amount of complaints moaning that it’s not got full RC potential out of the box ETC ETC, personally I think it can only be a good thing

I think this is a great way to market Tamiya tanks. Buy this and then get the electronics later.

I'll buy one. I've always wanted a Leo but I didn't want to buy a used kit. This will be my purchase for 2011.

Ordered the kit from Karen, I was quoted a very good price with shipping, this week.

The rumored word is that the hard points for turret rotation and other F/ODMD features are built in to this kit.

Doesn't matter if the rumor is wrong, this is my 2011 build.

LOL, so this has a working turret....it just gets better and better LOL. Well, I can always say I made mine FO all by meself LOL

I read that it was going to be RC Ready OTB. So you should have all the hard points already for the electronics and mechanical parts in place.

I hear ya brother!

Oh yeah, have you made the 2 front headlights working on yours?

I actually just got the LEDs today and plan to get on it later or tomorrow. My spotlight works though. I wonder if the new one has that option[8D]

You're right, it is a great idea! It's important to market to the modelling community as they are a much larger market than we are at present. Had proposed to do the same thing with the project I was working on.

Here ya go brother! All systems operational!
