The KV 2 always reminds me of those over exaggerated big headed toys.

I never liked the KV-2, but Jake is winning me over.
Not sure if this is the right place for this question, but is TOTM open to all scales? When the Hetzer is finished I might enter it, especially if you guys are allowing video by then. That's the main thing that keeps me from entering. I think one of the best things about our hobby is that these are RC tanks, and movement, sound and special effects (like a .50 caliber paintball cannon with FPV laser sighting) are a huge deal to me. Still photos can't tell me how a tank runs or sounds, and to me that's a very big deal. The best looking tank in the world that runs like crap will always end up a shelf queen, and I don't think shelf queens are really what we're all about, are they? We like our tanks to run and make noise and shoot stuff and even play Panzerlied as they parade down the road!! Like this one!

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!!
