Okay, where can I find 1/16 R/C Tanks that are reasonably detailed (obviously not Bandai) and arent too expensive. My prive range is 250 - 300 dollars. If a price is near that please tell me, I'll stretch it. Also, with this topic already made, wher can I find R/C 1/35 flying pigs? I hear there from some company in Asia.

Well col. i feel i need to direct you to SS-74 and sushi....Octupus, both are memeber here on armorama and you could give them a PM through any of the DSB forum posts.... I recommend talking to them because both live in Hong Kong!!!! And are getting the Tamiya Tiger I and King TIger for 650 usd dollars each!!!! Out of your price range I think not, These FULL option kits come with every thing and are not marketed in the states. These are the same as the kits in the states but come with the Radio and receiver set 2 batteries and a charger all in one box...When i see them later I'll direct them to this thread and have them post a reply and possbly have them PM you with the details... stug

The Full-option TIGER can be had on ebay for around $450. But http://www.dave4what.com is also a nice place to go.............

Take a look at the site- discountmodels.com
I was looking at it the other day and saw a number of the Tamiya R/C kits at quite low prices.

I found a stie that went under WHILE I was on it, and had RC military vehicles by over 8 compaines, and one was better than tamiya. They had 1/24 leopards, abrasm and a kingtiger that shot bbs, a bunch of 1/7 kits that are just like that real thing and almost as big, and some 1/16 for.........110$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. If it goes back up ill post the url.
