discussion thinking of getting this

[kacitgirl]

well looking at getting this and a subject to be on tow purely a shelf queen

That's a beast.

I have a smaller, non - RC tow truck planned for the future, but nothing as sweet as that!

 

[kacitgirl]

its sooooo expensive £994 and excluding a subject to tow

 

[Andy T]

Jeez...

I couldn't even justify that to myself, never mind my wife

Wow, lovely looking model, but phew, a grand or near as damn it!
I sometimes watch the RC YT channels where they have full building/construction sites set up with diggers, excavators, lorries, dumper trucks, forklifts, cranes, etc, plus the military ones with tanks, jeeps, all sorts of bridge laying vehicles and recovery vehicles, etc. They all look awesome.
My local model shop does RC stuff as well as scale models and he has some bigger stuff too!
One of my first ever jobs (Builders Merchants) I used to drive a forklift, and have always wanted a decent scale model RC one......one day I'll treat myself.... Lol.
Keep us updated if you get it.... pics would be good...

i need to seriously think about it as need another one to be on tow so in reality would be nearer £1600 for both luckily i'm single lol so only need to explain to myself

In all seriousness id love to see that put together, very impressive

 

[kacitgirl]

Would do it like this

 

[A7man]

I have nearly completed the four Austin Seven models I started over three years ago. Total cost for materials and machinery will exceed £2000. If I had known four years ago what it would cost me, would I have still done it? You bet!!!
Go for it!
