You guys are stupid. They’re gonna be looking for army guys.
Maybe I misunderstood, but this is true...
It seems a bit weird that they wouldn't just buy the components rather than the whole toy car, could be to get around not being allowed to buy directly from China as a defence contractor or something?
Or maybe Chinese factories not being allowed to sell to a US defense contractor?
Or maybe its just cheaper because of the quantities of the components they need and if ordering them directly they get overpriced.
Or maybe its to make it more difficult for spys to work out what components they're using.
Nah, buying direct would raise questions and most companies don't particularly want to actually be weapons suppliers. Tamiya who they're probably actually taking about would be unlikely to sell to Israel anyway given the Japanese governments stance on Israels relationship with it's neighbors.

Anyone else remember the myth about M16 handguards being made by Mattel?
Wow! Found conflicting info with a quick search, but I'm rolling with Snopes as it makes plain sense.

But maybe they did make the handguard only? Weird I've never run across this.
So hilarious that drone companies are now members of the military industrial complex. Any guesses who's gonna join next? Condiment brands? Ice-cream maker creators?
Didn't Toys R Us get eaten by Bain Capital?
For some reason they still exist in Israel (that is AFAIK, I don't go to shopping centers that much). And I think this was before the closure
