Merkava mkIII

[Tankbear]

Well I picked this Sol Merkava static tank from Forgebear last weekend



I plan to convert to RC, but I've a few other projects to finish first so might be slooooooow.

Merkava my favorite! Can't wait for you to build her up!

Could you please at least do an unboxing expose Mr Bear
We'd love to see the goodies

Yes this kit would be quite interesting to see unboxed as Mr Herman has stated.

No it's a surprise lol

I take a few snaps for you guys.

Although I was intrigued by this model, I found the cost to be over the top for a static model..

I will follow this to see how you do getting it finished up.

Cheers!

I bought off Forgebear who gave me a great price.

Wow that kit is amazing! Massive size too. Ian is this tank designed to be static with all the suspension design and tracks or is it already setup to convert to RC?
