Hello people,
I signed up here about 4 years ago after my house mate trashed my Heng Long Tiger I, with the full intention of getting back into the hobby, fast forward a bit and today I took ownership of a Heng Long M4A3 Sherman, it's had a bit of pimping and now resembles a basic Firefly.
I have future plans to find a suitable Hybrid hull but it's good to be back!
All the best,
Kyle

Re: Making a return.
Welcome back, Kyle, after the protracted break. Hope the out of control housemate has either moved out, or acquired a measure of calm and tolerance. Trashing a Tiger is sacrilege! (or should be reported to the RSPCA...)
Enjoy pimping your Sherman, and do tell us all about it- and with illustrations if you can post them.

Thanks, been having a play with it today and I've thoroughly amused myself.
As it's late in the evening I only managed a couple of indoor photos but it's a start:

Welcome back!
But... What was the worst part of the story: having your Tiger trashed or willingly buying a Sherman haha!

1:16 was my scale. Until 'Konan' came into my life... an Armortek 1:6 Tiger 1!

I'm a happy man.

Re: Making a return.
That would certainly be having my Tiger trashed, I dearly loved that machine and I'd have 2 tanks to play with instead of one...although the Firefly by far is my favourite vehicle.
