The TOTM rules state that the vehicle must be RC to enter, it was originally for tanks but has now evolved to allow wheeled vehicles such as trucks and support vehicles as long as they are RC, hope this helps

I think your next project should be to make this beauty into an rc model. Come on, you can do it!

No, no way I'm gonna spend money on this one.
For me, it's good as it is.
Besides that, it's scale 1:18, so slightly smaller compared to my Panzers and all my figures.
But, I did got a German officer with a German Shepperd Dog in scale 1:18, to stand beside it.
Still unpainted and un-assembled.
Once it will be finished, you're the first to know about it...

That would be awesome with a sound card inside playing a barking dog and a German police whistle! Perfect battlefield static piece. But sometimes I get a bit carried away.

Still a wonderful looking display model Rob, worthy of placement on any battlefield

Rob'59, beauty of a VW. I'm always amazed at the before and after shots. Unbelievable what you guys come up with!
Jimster, you get carried away?! That would be too cool though to have the shep bark and the gendarmerie blow his whistle!
Gotta love it all,
Eric.

Looks amazing! A masters touch on the paint and weathering of this for sure ! Love all the pictures. I agree a sound card with a barking dog, whistles and boots on a Coble stone street would be a nice touch. But does not at all take away from the final product. Thanks for sharing.
