Looks like the Micro R/C Tank craze is catching on and they haven't even hit the streets yet!

Dragon Models has 2 limited edition (only 500 sets) 1/72nd Scale Tanks coming out shortly...A Tiger1 (Camo) and a Tiger1(Grey)

Even at 1/72nd scale, these things are still almost as big as a MiniZ though...As cool as this tank looks, I'll be holding out for the Combat DigiQ myself. :)

After watching a video of them in action, I must say that they don't seem to be proprtional.

We need cases like these for Bit Char-Gs.

Walk into the race event with the suitcase and a trench coat, strikes fear into your opponent's eyes mwahahahahhha.

But, I'd settle for a plastic multi-compartment case that almost everyone uses. Currently, I'm using one of those medicine cases (the ones with the labels MON to SUN on each compartment :D). Of course, the only thing I can store are the axles, gears, tires, stabilizers, motors etc. don't forget some tylenol too.

I use a metal case that our offsite data storage vendor uses to send data tapes back to us in. :) If you can find a place that sells Penguin cases, chances are they'll sell a case like the one pictured above..

I have the Tiger. Looks great but does not drive well. The track design is pure crap and I consider it a waste of money.On anything other than a smooth surface the tracks come off.

If you want something that handles well get Konamis instead.
