I saw Brett's review the other day - look like a very fine kit.

I wonder if Tamiya will do a Tadpole too? A couple of new parts and extra track should do it so just like Emhar did it's probably feasible.

Shake and bake. All we need now is a definite price.

That will depend on where you live. As I said in the previous thread Hannants show it at £49.99, nothing on Lucky Model yet.

Just taken delivery of a pre production example. Looks very nice and well detailed and no doubt, assembly will be straight forward. Off down to Wellington for a Conference tonight but hope to make a start on it on Friday. Can't wait

And here it is. Though I have a feeling they may have gone over budget so were forced to cut back on the box artwork

Tamiya's not creating a massive amount of kits these days, but I would be surprised if someone didn't get together a conversion kit or a scratchbuild soonish.
