| Super fast from rcMart in Hong Kong, 5 days but courier so has custom charges plus expensive shipping. You have the 1/12 Jeep right ? I am almost tempted to get that as well. Now I have to find a driver for it and the only one is the Michael Wittman 1/12 which cost an arm and a leg. |

| That's not a bad price ($270 USD). It does look nice. |

| The kubelwagen is well worth it. Basically a scale replica of the real thing.
Michael Wittman is on eBay also, a little more expensive than the 1/12 Tom Hanks and Matt Damon. |

| Can you take some photos of the suspension? I looked online and no-one shows a bottom/frame shot. Interested in the front trailing arm and the rear portals. |

| OK. Looks like the shock system is a torsion spring akin to Heng Long Tank's plastic trailing arms. While the suspension (front) and the rear portals are plastic, they all have full bearing sets in them.
I may have to actually grab one... Someday... |

| Don't worry Mike I usually throw in the figure or in this case I might keep it since it is Michael Wittman. Something about not having in a driver in a moving vehicle really bugs in case you haven't noticed. |
