I just bought my F103rm today from Japan.
Sad to say that it is cheaper to buy from Japan


Does anyone have any building tips

Tower is ALWAYS expensive for Tamiya kits. You'll def pay more at tower then japan. However when the kits get to the US you'll be able to buy from places like speedtech for more reasonable prices...

examples

Tamiya TA05 IFS-R
Tower - 299.99
Speedtechrc - 239.99

Tamiya Toyota Land Cruiser 40 CR-01 Kit
Tower - 354.99
Speedtechrc - 299.99
Stormer - 299.95

If you are buying newer Tamiya kits from Tower, you are probably overpaying.

My guess is you'll be able to get the f103rm kit from other us online retailers for closer to 160 then towers price.
