Re: Mark 1 Tiger
Nice one. Congratulations on the acquisition! Will you change it at all or any big plans to personalise it?

Re: Mark 1 Tiger
well worth taking a look on Mark 1 Tanks website as I'm sure he has a section on there with various parts and upgrades for the 1/6 Tigers.....also try ARMOURPAX website.....real nice metal upgrades on there for sure and superb detail......hope this helps bud and keep us posted Ive been detailing my chally as I'm taking it to a show in August. Still a few bits to get for her but as you know parts can be rather pricey so have to do them as and when.......ALL GOOD FUN
Re: Mark 1 Tiger
I just ordered an MG34 from Armorpax, and they have lots of great detail stuff.
Can't wait to see more of this one, and I'm glad you finally found something you like.
Was it a good deal?

When FDR coined the phrase "The Arsenal of Democracy", he was talking about Detroit. Proud to live in the 2nd most violent city in America!!

Re: Mark 1 Tiger
So I got the tank home this week and she needs a lot of work..I opened her up and cleaned her out..And had a good friend Robert Bruce come over to give her the once over and get her going...put in a new battery ..go over the gears..I put oven cleaner over the whole tank and got rid of the horrible white clouded that were painted on and also found a crack in the barrel that I'll fix in the week plus I took all the tools off and gave them a clean and will be ordering new tie down straps for them plus new track holders and a lot of other bits to jazz her up ..but next is the respray..she is moving with full sound with recoil and turning turret and sounds great..not bad

Hi Lefty
Looks better already. I inagine quite satisfying to break it down and work through the different items. Dont rush a new paintjob, not sure how good your skills are but if you like me, impatience makes a mess!
