Here's one on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-16-Static-Ele ... 3cbf14813f

Jon got us a discount from Hooben in china, 4 or more kits ordered was $161 each. I think he did a great job based on the ebay price. :D

It moves pretty realistic compared to my 1/18 r/c Panzer! :shock: When i get mine,it is going to be static,for displaying my figures.This company really took the time to put a lot of details on this tank.

Looks like they are on sale for the holidays. I am trying to iron out a deal. Right now I have been told they are about $150 each including shipping. I'm trying to confirm this with Hooben in China.

Im going to pass on getting another. I have not had time to build my first :oops:

Here is the contact info for all of you who want one. Work together, PM eachother and work it out. Tell Hooben you want to buy the three or however many you want but want to pay for them seperate, then each person send thier share via Paypal with the correct common invoice number.
