Default New design Tamiya Battle Unit?
Did Tamiya change the design of the TBU? I saw a picture that looks different. If it is different does anyone know if it has the same performance?

Far as I know it's the same. Do you have the pic of what you saw?

Tamiya makes two styels of TBU. one for 1/16 tanks and one for 1/35 scale tanks. Could be you saw the 1/35 scale one?

I also remember that old picture of the TBU prototype, which every couple of years is 're-discovered' by someone..
