Collector's item
One of the models and radio that started it all. I point it out as purely a collector's item. They don't pop up often.
The Hinode single channel system was referred to in most all the early tank kits. It was years before I actually saw one
in the flesh..

Remember it's not what it is it's what era in the hobby it represents...

Don't know how old or rare, but it was new to me and I found it interesting. Not interesting enough to buy, but interesting nonetheless.

I think I paid $40 inc shipping for mine, tho the paint job was not anywhere near as good as that one. I popped a surplus HL non S&S board into it just for giggles (it was about the only thing I could do with a non S&S board after all!), even swapped out the cam ring for a Hl elevation unit and modded the sprockets to accept HL panzer IV tracks. I only ever ran it on carpet tho, so that's probably why it still works
They are a little undersized maybe, but look ok with 1/18 figures as a bit of 'set dressing' - wouldn't pay anywhere near that amount of money for one tho
