Ja, dat's a start--and the steel gearbox and metal tracks will made a good upgrade. And having the HengLong 7.0 Multi Function Unit is as good as it gets short of big bucks change-outs. You will have lots of possibilities for upgrading the appearance of the Tiger 1, too. For perhaps no other 1/16 tank are there so many aftermarket goodies. Just ask if you get interested.
Although the Rustoleum 2X gray primer is far too light for the German
Dunkelgrau, it is a primer I have used often on 1/16 RC tanks and other models. But for German Panzers the primer was reddish: among the Rustoleum line, the 2X red primer is a great choice from my experience. On the real WWII Panzers,
Dunkegrau (or
Dunkegelb) went over the reddish primer.

Boxes of Boxs.
R/C Tanks pretty addicted for upgrades. lol.
I guess the fourth tank going to be a modern tank. Like Leopard, Abrams, Merkava. But I'm kind of feel going towards to the IDF Merkava tank due a amount of detail of it.

I will definitely check it out, jandice. I am rarely on a U.S. Railroad forum (
https://ogrforum.com/) because I am busy here. Recently I sold lots and lots of U.S. O Gauge trains, but not all. So I am happily getting back to the Golden Prairie Railroad after almost six months of little run time at all.
