Welcome back....
I think that it is the machine gun firing in the hull and the light in the end of the T-34s gun barrel is just a "reflection"of the actual lights in the room not the main gun firing....
Pretty impressive T-34 to survive 5 hits from a Tigers 88....... It must be a "post war soviet propaganda film"...
Welsh Dragon Models and the RC TankDE are both extremely good vendors.....I have bought from them are they are very helpful and very quick to post parts off...

Thank you it is good to be back
I agree it must indeed be a propaganda video - those crafty Soviets

It does seem that the hull machine fires simultaneously with the raising and lowering of the main gun. Will find out for certain soon as they are both being ordered on Friday

Chris, are you after the ir or bb version? I have an almost full metal tiger with 2.4ghz that I might be willing to part with for a much more reasonable price than the torro.

That is a smart looking tank, cogratulations, although you are probably unhappy that much as you wanted you will not be able to enjoy the pleasure of applying Zimmerit, something that we have looked foreward to so much that in my case at least, I have done it twice! shaun

Hi,
That is a nice looking Tiger, and you get to add the Camo paint to match the Late Production Version.......I have to say that I have never been brave enough to take on the ' challenge of Zimmerit ' it just seems to be such a time consuming and labourious task to apply all the putty...

I think that the member who uses the soldering iron might actually have the best idea as there is no way that it will ever chip or peal off the plastic..

Yes I have selected a Tiger to finish it as will hopefully have a clip or 2 of it running tonight in its current state. As for zimmerit well that's going to face me twice over for 2 King Tigers in the future
