I waited for 2 months.. 8 weeks of shipping on this bad boy and paid top buck for it.. but what a beauty. I am collecting RC boats for my outdoor pond this year. I also included in my Torro Premium 1/16 RC VW Schwimmwagen T166 - which were also very expensive if you are searching for them.. but they are a collectors dream come true.

About the full size:

The LCM (Landing Craft Mechanized) already exists before the Second World War, under different versions. The LCM 3 is developed in two different versions: cargo and troop transport. Its tactical role is to increase the firepower of a landed force. Indeed, the LCM 3 is capable of embarking and disembarking a 30-ton tank (8kg at 1/16 scale size), which can subsequently support the infantry as close as possible during an amphibious assault.
