Opel Blitz by Coolbank

[SoCalBobS]

I just ran across some info about the Opel Blitz by Coolbank. It's apparently finally available, but I don't have info as to where yet. Here is a screen capture from FB and a video from YT.

Personally, I am glad to see the tank style controller, although others may disagree. My experience with pistol grip controllers is that they fail a lot.

Can't find it yet online (AliExpress, Taobao, etc.). No official word, but my sources tell me that Motion RC is planning to offer them, maybe in 4 to 6 weeks. That would reduce shipping costs compared to individual ordering from China. I'll wait, fingers crossed!

I personally can't wait. More cheap fleet trucks in 1/16 please!

I hope that they can keep the price point of the classic 6WD trucks. Under $50?

I have to do a lot of upgrade such as tire on this 6WD truck, but it is fun. The Humvee is fun too. All 1/16 scale. (BTW, Hewitt built only 8x8, this 6x6 RC model is not for a real truck.)
