New but just wanted to say thanks.

As per the title, thank you. I've just registered but read some posts on here regarding MATO all metal tanks and a certain seller to avoid. I was ready to pull the trigger on a tiger once I had the money from the online seller that isn't well thought of.

Instead I'm looking to buy either a Taigen or Torro tank from Forgebear. So even if I don't end up actually being all that active on here I just wanted to type I'm grateful.

Cheers.

Well just reading google results gave me the information I needed.

I'm stuck between a Tiger, I mean iconic, pretty much the quintessential tank if there can be such a thing. Also like the idea of a WW2 tank (used to play and will probably return to WoT) that can become a xmas tree if you will for added deco etcetera.

The other tank in the mix is the Torro (modern) Leopard. Compared to the Tiger they're chalk and cheese and I don't believe it has the same character but that turret, tracks and road wheels are insane.

..and on the subject of insanity, welcome to bananas ground zero

Well, the Tiger 1 probably has the biggest amount of upgrade and detailing parts on the market, because it is the most popular of all tanks.
The Leopard is a most popular tank out of the modern armour, and they do look good in ones hands, they also run quite well.

Cheers both. Haven't quite figured out how to multi quote yet.

That is the predicament I'm in. On the 1 hand the Tiger has a lot more going for it in terms of character and adding too. Although at this point I must add I have no intention of tinkering with the internals. I don't have the patience to have to start trying to find a home for a screw.

The Leopard reminds me of a great white shark. Perfection. But like I typed and you'll be well aware there's no buckets, chains or nets to add.

Do what I did. Get both!
My first tank was a Tiger 1 and then I got a Leopard. Those are my favorite tanks and it’s nice having a foot in both time periods.

And here’s a bucket on a Leopard

Ha ha ha brilliant. Alas I can't afford both and it'd be some time before I ever could. I fear this decision will torment me for some time.
