Welcome Horse 45

I would stick with the Heng Long buy a nice Panther G to go up against your Sherman and use the left over dough to upgrade the electronics. A couple of new radios, Clark boards let you fight almost everybody. servo recoil, better speakers, paint jobs with maybe some PE and accessories for each, and that will take care of your 500 pounds!

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo... not another Panther!!

If not the TORRO KV2...HENG LONG's T34/85

Throw a TIGER cupola on it and you will have something totally different... plus you can battle your SHERMAN




She's one of HENG LONG's newest... and if you think your SHERMAN runs smooth... this one is even better

Good Evening,
Welcome to the Forum, Horses45. There is a wealth of information here along with a lot of knowledgeable folk to answer questions. We love pictures of tanks so please show yours off when you can. As Alpha meant to say, I am a fan of the Torro KV-2. It is expensive but worth it. Recently, I have discovered that a reasonably priced Heng Long KV-1 with metal tracks and sprockets, an Asiatam metal KV-1 lower hull and Torro's own IR (infra-red) KV-2 turret sold complete with electronics installed along with parts to turn it into a German Captured version can be had for a very reasonable price. The only caveat is not having an issue taking apart a brand new tank and adding parts to build another. That's something I don't mind doing. *chuckles* I just ordered a Heng Long Sherman myself and plan to do some mods on it when it arrives. They are a really good tank right out of the box I hear. Enjoy!
regards,
Painless Wolf

So sorry about my mistake Painless.. yes I did mean KV2... and have corrected that mistake forthwith
