hello me again ! lol

trumpeter did some reaserch ... and the chally came out as most wanted in 1/16 .. even more so than the m1 ... now i am in no way grummbeling

but i thought the m1 would hace come top ... dut to the fact there more of our brother across the pond than brits ? or maybe because the m1 is realy a boreing bit of barck mulch ... like going to a harvester for sunday lunch and getting served the same rubbish evey week ! covered in brown sludge // oh was that gravy ?

Well if the electronics suck looks for a nice kit bash Tamiya lower hull and electronics or even HL electronics and RC Command's new sound system to bad this is not set up for 3rd party Tx yet .

i will tell you all i know, which to be fair is not much (no laughing at the back!). i have just ordered my first lot of kv1s to arrive within the next two weeks and the supplier sent me a piccie of the jagdtiger and said 'look new tank coming soon'. supplier also said that the sherman may be out in july, but they are still working on it. no idea on the price, but it is from heng long, so perhaps more affordable??? you think ordering 1 tank is bad, you should see what happens when the wife found out i had ordered bb & ir kvs and some bb stugs as well. normally she is quite calm, but i don't think she likes the fact that the sea container is in her parking space LOL

p.s. the panther is running behind too apparently

Send the pic back with a note in coloured crayon.

We want the following:

T34
SU85
Churchill
Centurion
Sherman

All for Â£50 each and in basic kit form, with add ons as extras, eg IR, Boards, Metal Tracks, Wheels etc.
And tell them to build a Tamiya compatible IR unit, and decent sound too.

How good is your diplomatic Chinese?
