Heng Long KV-2
Since HEC was canceled, HL decided to put their initial run of 20 slated local sale up on their T-Mall store Saturday night at 2000 sharp & I scored one before they sold out in a matter of minutes. Purchased their top end with all metal upgrades including bearings & it had better show up Monday with a half-naked KTV hostess at this price.

Actually will be for my kids to play, that and a Jagdpanther that arrived last week. Am going to get a KV-1 while local supplies are still good to set aside for one of the Russian conversion kits. My luck HL will announce a KV-85 or SU-152 right after I start this next project.

Re: Heng Long KV-2
Those are some nice looking conversion kits, it's pleasing to see the attention to detail like the sloping transmission deck and stepped front glacis. Who does them?

Re: Heng Long KV-2
Yes it is a very nice looking kit & from what I was told, sounds more than robust for field use made of ABS, 3DP & metal parts. Is designed to replace the upper HL hull with minimal work. Sure beats the StuG A conversion I'm currently slicing & grinding my way through.

Re: Heng Long KV-2
Yes, I, too, am interested in your observations. I hsve two KV-2s, both Taigen “captured” units. I wonder how HengLong’s does with Russian outfitting and sound.
