Oh how I laughed when you wrote "I MIGHT GET ANOTHER ONE" this comes under the heading of "THE BLINDINGLY OBVIOUS" go for a Pershing it had a long and interesting history with a lot of modifications and it is a nice size so plenty of space inside for a decent control board, the T34 and those others on your list are what everyone else builds right after they have finished their "STUG"

That's a henglong t-34 in the picture (the raised suspension is the tell tail). Panther and jagdpanther are great runners out the box. If your after a Pershing you can probably pick up a tamiya Pershing of UK eBay for under £200 or $300 (shippings is probably $75). Anyway all the tanks your mentioned have metal lower hulls so there's scope for upgrades in the future!

I thought about the Pershing, maybe 5 minutes total...not one of America's greatest tanks (that would have to be the M1 I suppose) saw little service in WW2 but did knock out a Tiger or two. They were considered unreliable and underpowered but the 90 mm did clean up a lot of the T-34's in Korea. But now you've got me thinking of an M41...

Good Morning,
Marc, I can recommend the HL or Tamiya Pershing or a combination of both. Why?, I cannot fathom at the moment. *chuckles* ;o)

Gotta agree with Marc, the Pershing was more prone to breaking down then being taken out by an enemy tank!

If those you have pictured are the ONLY 3 you'd consider then I'd say go for the T34 unless you're trying to march on Poland.

Don't get the Matorro T34...if anything the Heng long...from what I've been reading...it's better than the Taigen... I have two both are great
the Matorro has funky sounds ... a weird controller

JagdPanther is nice...the Panther is nicer

But really... Get a Sherman ...you won't regret it
