Drive_carcar Clutched January 20, 2009 Share January 20, 2009 And I thought it's a dying hobby... good things still have some people interested. Nowadays young people only know computer / psp games; when I was a kid, it was all about building our favourite plane / tank / ship models to show off to our friends. There's nothing quite like building a realistic minature model. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

[thumbsup] i agree though the Heng Long ones lose out on the "looks", they have much much better performance than the vstanks one i tried bring down the vstanks for some offroad really really cannot do offroad almost gaurantee to throw track i got 3 vstanks (infra red type) my kids play like siao Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BYW, got some versions even come with smoke generator. Bro, if you really like tanks, consider investing in a Tamiya. My only advice to buy on Ebay from those Hong Kong sellers since it is much cheaper than the local distributor. I started with Heng Longs too but the difference between Tamiya and Heng Long is like night and day ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
