welcome to the site we are all big kids, playing with our tanks on here.
Recently I was testing my tiger 1 outside the block of flats where I live and I was asked how old I am. When I replied 46 the person asking me said that I was to old to play with a toy tank. I  told them how much my "toy" had cost me and asked if any child could afford it
so all I can say is play away to your hearts content along with your son with your tanks and stuff what anyone else says

PS nice looking tanks
