Another new release from the folks over at agora. Full remote control, camera with 7" screen on the controller, smoking exhausts, lights, sounds etc. Packed full of features, could be an interesting build

I think at that overall price Agora can keep it in their warehouse..... No way would I pay the price they're asking.....

The overall cost is pretty much in line with any other partwork available.

I beg to differ, compare the cost of this kit with the DeAgostini T-72, you’ll see there is a big difference BigGrin

Can't really compare to an item that is out of stock but I do understand. It does feel somewhat like the same model kit albeit re skinned. Although it does seem to have a re designed controller with added camera and screen

Also, even though its out of stock, the t72 is stated to be £59.99 a month (the same monthly price but would end up more expensive as you only get 4 kits for that, correct me if I'm wrong?), iirc the full kit was heavily discounted before going out of stock.

The T-72 is £59.99 X 12 months = £719.88 minus £50 from the first month which you get for £9.99 = £669.88. I think you’ll find the 12 month price for the leopard 2 is £99.99 per month. The T-72 will be coming back into stock at some point. Cool

I stand corrected. Excuse me if I don't believe you on it coming back in stock any time soon. I dont think ive ever seen it in stock for several years now, but I agree now agoras offering is very expensive for what essentially seems the exact same model kit with a different shell.
