1/72 remote tanks. Octupus has one, He never lend to me for playing though, selfish Sushi!!!!

Anyway,. they are kinda nice, but for almost 100 bucks, it's up to you to decide. DOn't think you need to do anything with it. it comes weathered.

I actually got my hands on one of these buggers. $68 USD (my cost at the hobby shop $55). Pretty cool, descent detail. Pretty agile/mobile, go up and over good size obstacles. However, I ended up taking mine back. (WARNING >> this might just be the case with the 4 my local hobby shop had, so I can't vouch for them all) While driving forward, due to the design of the treads (material and such), the left (or right) tread tries to work itself off. It gets about as far as you can get without actually throwing the track all the way off. If you reverse before the tread gets too far gone, it works itself back on. Great little novelty item if you don't mind resetting the track every 3-4 mintues. Makes a cool little desk item to goof off with when bored. But beware, your treads, too, may decide not to cooperate. (Besides I have as much r/c tank as I can handle w/ my 1/16 King Tiger, kinda pales in comparison). But anywhoo....just my two cents worth...would hate to see someone waste the money and be disappointed, knowing I could have prevented it!
