You should of kept the King Tiger, that a swap I'd undo in a heartbeat!

That Tiger may look cool now but wait till you get the King Tiger home and you see your could hide that Tiger inside the King Tiger!

Is the King Tiger a lot smaller then?

edit - oh, did you mean the king tiger is a lot bigger???

Hey do you know where that saying came from? "Yanking your chain".

Dunno for sure lol...think it had something to do with flushing a toilet...the old ones had chains on them ...a friend of mine has a craftsman's house...he has one just like this


Anyway...think that's where the saying came from

My brother will repaint it...
But I prefer this Tiger F01 of his so I said we'll do a swap and I get to keep this one!

I have questions about the Tiger actually... first and mainly of the turret. It's a bit too loose..
I'll start another thread and photo on it maybe this weekend.
I have packed the Tiger away now as it was occupying my wife's dining table.

Which one? The Tamiya or the Torro...the Torro is actually way better...has a metal turret and everything

Congrats!!!!...Enjoy the new toy

Alpha,
Close. Back in the gold rush days when you were in the mine and had to take a #2 there was a special mine cart with a wooden box on top with a hole cut in the top
You'd climb up on the cart to take care of business and while you're sitting there, pants around your ankles the most fun thing to do was give the cart a hard push and down the track you'd go! So in order to stop that you had to wrap a chain around one of the wheels to stop from going through the mine, pants around your ankles screaming. So if someone is yanking your chain you're getting ready to go for a ride!

Saw it the History channel a couple days ago.

Well done in winning the Tiger!
