In 1/8 scale, the Hunting Tiger is still big enough to be battled and it

the house and backyard. Although it has no problem lighting up a target in
bright sunlight, looking for the green dot is not easy.

The Hunting Tiger kit includes cast aluminium tracks and drive wheels.

The tracks are nicely detailed, but the pins holding them together tend
to slide out after driving around for awhile. Karl will be using lots
of loctite to keep everything together.
