Re: The chally II
Now somehow I can't quite see the likes of Heng Long and Tamiya rushing that one into production, I suspect that this will be something to do with the rule of supply and demand...

God that's an ugly tank.
Looks like the day I dropped my spares box on the floor

Ugly? I think it's beautiful! Kinda like one of those little pugs, it's so ugly it's cute.

Re: The chally II
Be nice, now. It might not be your cup of tea, but I still like it and I just may build one eventually. Right after one of these

Now that's different, in a good way that is. Brian...
Re: The chally II
Yeah Brian, it kind of makes me think of the evolutionary missing link between the Sherman and the Pershing. 
I have more research to do, but for RC it looks like I could put Sherman VVSS and tracks on an M26 lower hull and have a good start. I need better photos of the engine deck and then maybe I'll ask one of the experts to identify that turret for me.

Re: The chally II
The turret look awfully like the Mato M4A1, if not the Jumbo turret maybe ? Would be an interesting build.

Re: The chally II
Hi We don't make any tanks (well not now ) they shut the plant where the challengers were built. Yet another short sighted government , scraped the Harrier scraped the challenger 2 scraped the nimrod. could go on with what we have invented and no long make. But other goverments still make what we invented.
