Burp ! ....excuse me ! finished dinner and could'nt wait to start on the kit.
The following is my personal review of the TA05, please forgive me if there are any inaccuracies when you get yours as I live in a tiny red dot on the map, somewhere in Asia and Tamiya may not have the same specs for the TA05 in your region.
Also please dun ask me "How much ?" as that would not be fair to your LHS and I strongly believe in supporting LHS.
Finally, please forgive me for the large number of Pics which will follow as i feel that a Pic tells a thousand words.
How should I start...... maybe with the fine box art that is uniquely Tamiya
