Thinking of putting my KT up for sale.

Spec as follows:
Toro metal king tiger IR
Metal turret
Metal sprockets and idlers
Metal tracks
Metal wheels
Opening hatches
Working head lamp
Rctankelectronics servo recoil
Servo elevation
Rctankelectronics vampire hidden IR system
Rctankelectronics fr7 speaker and enclosure
IR emitter hidden
Led flash
Clark tk60
Pdsgb gearbox
Schumo mg 34 and mount
Schumo tow cables
Schumo tow cable holders
Shapeways fuel breathers
Shapeways fire extinguisher
Shapeways tool holders
Mk 3m antenna
Mk command star antenna
Fine line hull mg 34
Zimerite filled and smoothed
Weld beads and torch cut ends
Rolled texture added
Fenders properly removed
Fender mounts added
Gary farrow custom paint job

She runs perfectly and has so much power, she can pivot on grass. The gearboxes are whisper quiet too. She battles brilliantly and if you fancy going full hooligan she will drift on a smooth floor on 3s!

I've probably got about £1100 in her. Whilst I'd like to get as much back as possible I'm realistic. So feel free to send me an offer if your interested.

Ideally collection from Manchester but could box up and post at buyers risk and expense

Haha! I'm fully stocked in that regard ;) My goal was to make the ultimate KT from a mechanical, electrical and detail point of view. I think it's succeeded!

Hi, The King Tiger looks and sounds fantastic.
I can only hope that my efforts might be anywhere as good.
I would offer a arm but then wouldn't be able to control it, so that would be any good.

I'd buy it if it came with the troopers riding on it in the film footage we all are familiar with from the Ardennes !!
And I mean real troopers because it sure looks like its the same tank !!!
