Perhaps you may need this? at 35.00 and shipping a real bargain, :haha: :haha: Just joking Glen. By the way what tank did you order? Henschel or Porsche? Henglong or Matorro?

Just curious as the Matorro has been a real bitch to open,track pins a very difficult to remove and the Heng long/Waltersons have diffidently solved this issue with the 6 screws to hull disassembly.

In Canada, from Mato, there is one choice, besides IR or airsoft, the HL Porsche Turret King Tiger, so that is what I went with.

It will get Abt 503 colours/markings for No. 314, Hungary, Oct. 1944, including these decals;

It is 10 km to our tank club for me, mine ride in style on the car seats :haha:

Glen that tank might be in the camo section as a drawing? If not i'll check the source which is a poster that we separated into individual tanks,the poster was from a Russian source.cheers lets check it out when it arrives.

By the way the Postal strike in Canada has am odd effect,the mato to America prices have dropped from 34.00 to 25.00 us,that's much better, C/U

Thanks, I have found another possibility.

I have posted the colour plate on another forum because in spite of the instructions, I am not capable of besting the challenges of posting pictures here;

That's odd about the effects of the postal strike, but there again, there's a lot of mysteries about the workings of Canada Post :haha:

Inside Canada, they seem to go by UPS, at least that's how mine arrived, very promptly, too.

Mine's done, except for some of the markings which are waiting on delivery of some stencils.

It is fitted with Mato 3:1 gearboxes and an SLU. It drives very well, slow speed control with these mod's is excellent.

I would love to post some pictures of my finished KT .

I find this forum quite difficult to post pictures on at best, but used to be able to, however, its not working out for me these days.
