Thanks Siegfried :thumbup:
The trains are 1:22 scale so too small really (the Tiger looks massive next to the Austrian narrow gauge trains).
With the right picture composure the two work well together.

Tiggr!
I never get tired of looking at and admiring your Taigen Tigers! As I scope around today for detail parts for Jacks Tiger, I am reminded just what a Golden Age of the Hobby it is that we are lucky enough to live in. Keep up the beautiful work and photography!
regards,
Painless

Mr Tiggr, may I ask why do you particularly favour this one?

Mick.
Hi Mick
I like the camo finish on it and it has a TK24 installed with BB and recoil action, so it's the best specced tank in my roster. :thumbup:

I'm not sure which mechanism is in the turret Mick, but it is now fitted as standard on Torro Tiger tanks of the mostly metal variety - this one came from Tankzone - they fitted the TK24 to it, so for the likes of me it's the dogs wotsits. :D

There has been around 2 inches/50mm of snow here, so naturally the winter camo Tiger had to have an excursion out in the snow.
No problems for the heavyweight Taigen model, the snow was suitably thrown about at every turn.
I had to put the tank on a towel indoors once manouevres had been completed before it was garaged again.
