Nice! the Russian has got it. But sorry that I don't see any torsion bars, does JS-2 has torsion bars or is it hidden?

The sounds are a far cry from the stock taigen original sounds but could use some improvement. Looks great though.

Thanks for sharing this

I hope the will be "kit" version because paint job is poor in my opinion. It is a pity that Tamiya it so expensive.

I think Tamiya costs somewhere near US$800 in kit version (no RTR though). you'd need to buy a transmitter, battery and charger, and then, build the tank by your own. the most difficult part for me is painting... painting is a real pain to me.

Allied and Russian tanks are easy to paint. Only smear them with olive drab ;)
