Songcm@U move down to south under? I see a lot of people taking ELTS test to migrate to Australia when I was working for ELTS test center. Did U move all your tanks there too? Most are from USM arab students trying to move there - they took the test together with their whole family.

how much is that Taobao 1/72 scale tank cost? From penang, did not see any but I do saw the Easy model at WHM selling around@RM39/= after discount each. End up getting a huge 1/16 scale T-90 RC tank with spring suspension on 7.2v battery at Penang road toy shop. There was some 1/76 scale spring moving tanks selling at RM13/= each. Try to look for a AMX-30 but must are panther / tiger /jagpanther. Got some russina WW2 infantry for exchange with other similar 1/72 scale. Anyone interested?

I got that T-90 RC tank at RM90/= after bargain down from RM100/=. Remember saw that online selling for RM95/=. excluding postage. The owner told me most Hong Kong toy are going up due to currency factor. A lot of 1/35 painted figure at RM6/= to RM7/= each WW2 german soldier. I was looking for higher quality 1/72 figure but there is none. Got a Maisto Humvee in green in 1/72 scale from GAMA supermarket for RM6.90 with 20% off.

My suggestion is that go for the Tiger 1 in Issue#1 as it only cost RM9.90 each if you can only afford one. It the one that bring us all here.

BTR-80 and LAV-25 is one of the most used combat vehicle nowadays with major users all over the world conflict. BTR-80 for RM29.90 price is a good bargain as compare to Dragon or Easy Model. Hetzer - the little big gun on the battlefield. If Hitler had produce more of them rather then the more expensive one. Quantity will surely win the war.

Anyone want to share out the bulk purchase for the EasyModel since it cost less with 1kg postage. I am looking at the AS-90, BTR-80 and M113 South Vietnamese unit. Hopefull CTC will have the BTR-80 as it diecast metal rather then plastic.

CTC still have some miles to go before it finish. Al-script may bring in other replacement for us. If the EasyModel is cheap, then we can bulk order some for us here. Did not know Vathi had left. She was the first person I hear from when I sub the CTC. I know, most are aiming for that MAUS. Easymodel are plastic. There are also ModelCollect that specialize in Russian tank. For now, I mainly build my own PST kit in 1:72 from HHQ mainly WW2 Russian tanks and vehicle. It come with plenty of spare part for our CTC diorama.

There is lack of Japanese WW2 tank in the series. It will be wonderful to have some of it in our collection rather then re-cyling the free gift.

Leopard Evo come equip with a RWS - Remote Weapon System that can be fire from inside the turret using digital cam aiming just like a PS3 game console. More and more tank/IFV are installing this RWS. I am still hoping some SPG like that 2000 will make it into our remaining CTC.

Agreed, it just 10% of the total tanks in CTC and the half-track like 250 is hard to find in normal diecast model available here. It seen the main bulk of the collection came from the german WW2 series. Any open top vehicle come with good interior detail like the steering wheel and seat like that Sdkfz 232. Hope the Military Vehicle Series will make it to our shore when the CTC end.

My wish list LAV-25 is finally here. Now just hope that BTR-80 too make it here. Sdkf.222 is widely use even by KMT in China against the Japanese force. Small but important as it mean to quick and unseen by the enemy due to it small size. Looking at all the latest MBT - it more and more like a box shape, unlike the M48, T-55 more rounded shape.

How much do it cost to buy including shipping for all those Japanese tank? CTC is getting nearer and it look like more wheeled and truck is coming this way - which mean BTR-80 will probably make it.

I agreed, those with open top vehicle often have extra detail like steering wheel and seat detail as compared to fully enclosed one like tank. The sdkfz 234 is good example. Now, is how to stuff some 1/72 figure into it.
