Dear Friends,

Check out this 1/16 elefant kit

Photobucket" BORDER="0">

Where can I buy this kit online in Asia? I am based in Singapore. It doesn't make sense for me to order this from Germany when if it is manufactured in China.

Cheers

How about providing the manufacturer's name? It'd be easier than trying to read the info from the photo.

It's an Arkmodel C6614 1/16 RC Elephant Jagdpanzer model tank. After googling the da*ned thing, it looks like the only way to get it is directly through the company:

Price is FOB $215-$308 USD per unit. They do single item orders.

Make sure they are ready for shipping BEFORE laying down any cash for it.

I waited from March to finally giving up this month waiting on them to manufacturer the kit. Many, many promises and deadlines given by them never were satisfied so my money went somewhere else.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the reminder, I thought they looked dubious, the tanks are really appealing but hosting on the alibaba website looks really dubious..

Thanks
