Was just looking at their website earlier today & most of the kits shown are from Panda Hobby, I wonder if Zimi bought them...

I designed and 3D printed a T92 6 years ago but only got half way though the build, maybe I should try and get in finished before the Zimi kit comes out and I lose all interest in my version ;D

That PLA AFT-10 looks pretty cool!

I wish they would do the Type 625E though.

The T92 light tank is on my 3D print todo list, but so is a lot of other stuff so not sure when I'd get around to it.
