I got divorced 6 years ago, so no problems on spends or limits here.

I came close to buying a mid production Tiger 1 - the new Torro version with the gun barrel recoil built in as standard.
The difference between the Torro version and the 2 Taigen versions I already have are:
1. Recoil on gun barrel
2. The tank has a wooden carrying box.
3. The tank's battery can be charged via a port on the rear plate, so no need to open the tank to get the battery out.

So is it worth an extra £120 ?

After a battle with a host of T34s out at Gnadenheim near the oilfields in the Crimea area, Tiger 381 is about to be towed back to HQ for transmission repairs.

Mm. Yes. The red oxide rattle can hasn't quite had the desired effect

They are all real trees on my garden railway. The smaller dark green ones are dwarf conifers. The larger lime green trees are a different variety of conifer - all available from UK garden centres. Most have been planted for around 3/4 years or more.
With some I trimmed off the lower branches to make them more like a proper tree trunks. See first picture in the thread.
