Has AFV gone completely off their rocker?

According to the blurb it is inflatable. Cost: between $25 - $30.

Looks great!
But I consider it wise to check local legislation about these items.
In the Netherlands you risk a walk to the court room.

Hmmm... Maybe AFV Club is targeting the Japanese market with this stuff? Japanse flats are relativly small.
Maybe AFV Club is having problem selling their plastic kits?

I think their main business is tactical gear for SWAT teams and military. The model line is a result of a passion for AFVs. I think these are cool albeit a bit pricey...

Wonder where the air valve is. If you fill them with helium they will really fly, and when they explode they go up with a big FFFAAAAAAARRRRRRT explosion!
