mydoddy69 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Not really ground breaking news I reported this a year ago ! http://www.msuk-forum.co.uk/forums/topic/203964-new-thunder-tiger-line-up/ Last I heard (back in the early summer 2015) Thunder Tiger will not be supplying these or any of the new line up to the UK until they have sourced a new disbutor as they where having trouble with there current one .. Not sure if this has been resolved or not or wether a new one has been found but the current lack of Thunder Tiger models here in the UK would suggest not ?

coffeecup Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 visually I think it's quite cool. I kind of like the chunky toy look for a change, rather then generic american pickup, I wouldn't say it's amazing, the shell under the cage hasn't got that much moulding but for me it's where the front bumper sits. It looks really low compared to the front of the shell. I know why they do it and why they make the shell sit higher but it has that weird thing where you can see the chassis sides (and battery box) under the shell...I always feel that gap kind of looks like a fat girl in a crop top.

RCbutcher Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 So thunder tiger hasn't got a distributer since model zone closed down or was ther another. Why can't modelsport or wheelspin get them in. Do rcs have to come in bulk to one place then sent out from ther to all the shops. Obviously that's how a distributer works but without one does that mean no stock end of story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I'd do it, but the space needed for storing boxes of that size would be considerable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Not to mention the many, many earth pounds required to pay for the stock, shipping, import duties, distribution etc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deafty Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I'm not sure if it is only distributor related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigjimknickers Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Look pretty cheap In Germany atm as Tomr found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydoddy69 Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 Yep but don't forget there's no UK parts support so if it breaks your be shipping in spares all the time Atleast the mt4 has uk eBay chop shops to support them. They do do look fun tho I have to say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomr Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 It shares most parts with the G3 and if you do need parts from Germany its pretty quick so both are good options 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 That is possibly the worst looking MT I've seen in a long time IMO. Sent from my iPad Air using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
