Does seem expensive, although all metal explains price.

Would rather a plastic one with metal gears and a better sound system.

Yes, they come with the clark board (TK22) and the rebranded flysky TX, very much like the Hobby King T6, but the mato doesn't have pots. Or at least mine doesn't.

That Jackson may very well be my next tank, and soon you should be able to buy it without electronics for about $150 less. I plan to get the unpainted RTR version. It says it has recoil, and that would be very cool because I don't think the mato sherman has barrel recoil, you have to install that yourself.

What I really want is a Hellcat!!

I'd think about buying the turret once they start selling it in parts :D ...and put in on a Heng Long chassis...it's more friendly as far as mods...that metal hull is terrible...got one for a project....it was such a disappointment I scrapped the idea....The hull is molded exactly like the old plastic Sherman Mato used to make (which I wish they would bring back)....so you have to cut an awful lot of the metal to make alterations :thumbdown:

Keith, I've taken the plunge on one of these. I'll post a full review when it arrives.
