Post by darkhelmet25 »

Does anyone know of a reputable dealer accepting pre-orders for the soon to be released Meng King Tiger? Thanks

I've ordered from MegaHobby a number of times. https://www.megahobby.com/categories/20 ... rders.html

Also check with Matt @ Hobby World USA. He seems like a real stand-up guy when I've done business with him. He is also the official retailer for Ultimate here in the States. http://www.hobbyworld-usa.com/Store/ He may not have it listed on his site, but I think he will provide a quote if he doesn't have it.
