Post by Ludwig von wigbearer »

Hi all, being a man of my word, I said I would never buy another Mato all metal tank after all of the problems
I had with the last one, so here's my latest purchase

It came very well packed, It's the kit version which comes without some of the electronic bits :thumbup: :wave:

Ludwig!
The metal handles and guards on the last Mato Sherman I bought this year were a lot better in quality standards than the ones on the M36 B2 I had originally rebuilt. I hope this holds true for you as well.
regards,

Please do keep us informed, Ludwig. I have a Mato M-10 (the same lower) and it has/is giving me endless trouble, from turret to tracks and most of the rest in between. I would so like to get the M-10 in good shape.

Thanks for your response painless and professor, well it's off to a better start than before as nothings fell off yet,
and all the roadwheels are fitted with bearings, have a Clark TK50 on its way so looking forward to seeing it
move under its own steam soon :thumbup: :wave:

I love the M36 and M10's. Nice start, looking forward to what you'll end up with.
