Couple of real ones.

Been away from tanking for a bit, getting into my rc planes of late, recently had a family holiday
and while my girls went shopping Panzerman hunted down some tanks.
Happy to be corrected, would like to suggest the following is probably one of the rarest tanks on
the planet, the sole remaining A7V in existence is currenty on display in the Australian War
Memorial. As you can see you can get up close and even touch her!
Interior, not much to see, the Germans attempted to destroy the
machine with an internal charge.
Another couple of gems.

I popped over and had a look at Mephisto a few weeks ago and it really is an impressive beast. I like how the blokes who captured it engraved their names under the cross on the back. That's one way to ensure your place in history.

Isn't there a Centurion around there? Its been so long since I spent some time there - back when they had the mini-subs in Sydney Harbour exhibition.

Kaiser me old bodkin, the more I see Centurions the more puzzled I am that none of the major makers of R/C Tanks has got round to building and selling them,

Some years ago somebody posted photographs of Boxes purporting to be from Heng Long and on these boxes were pictures of Centurions, Photoshopped ? I don't know, but I am still waiting for the day when I am the proud owner of one.

I could be well into my second century before that occurs.

And that is 12 months longer than you or I or any other member of the Forum have had it

If the water really does turn into wine then I hope that "Schumo" "DKLM" "Aeromate" "Asiatam" and all the other makers and dealers in upgrades get their act together, because the variety of Centurions from the early Korean War examples to the almost unrecognisable Israeli Versions would keep an upgrade manufacturer in business for years.

I bet that most of all its the photographs you are waiting for? I could also include a sound track but the language would get it a PG rating
