RE: Video of Hooben Elephant
I've attached a photo of the road wheels on an Imai Elefant. You may see the spacing of the two bogey pairs is different
than that of the rear two. These rear two are the one that will move apart as more weight is added. The 1st and 2nd sets will remain
fairly constant as they move in the same direction.

Is that a Maus in the background ? If so is it going to be a Hooben ?
If so they wont be able to build them fast enough, well probably amongst our little community anyway

RE: Video of Hooben Elephant
Hi Guys ,I have to say the wheel spacing is a little out ,But it dosnt bother me that much will still be getting one.Cant afford a metal one or an IMA so for me its a Hooben .At least they have made the suspension correctly.Have seen a T55 running from them and was very impressed with the model .All models have something wrong with them even Tamiyas.Thats the reason we buy them to alter, upgrade and even make something completely different.

Yes and yes. In the pipe line, but no scheduled production date yet.
And, the Elefant has now been put off a few weeks, should be mid June delivery, not mid May. Bummer. All is ready except the TU's and the kit box.
