As I don’t have an EBay account , and I’ve been lusting after a MERKAVA for ages, Aaaand there is action in the Middle East that has thrust it to the forefront, the bride surprised me with an eBay & afterpay Mk IV MERKAVA.
The kids were excited to see me home & watch the youthful glee like olde Xmas mornings when I saw a big box the tore into it.
Can’t thank them enough it was a magical moment and the joy & happiness when it wasn’t a Bulldog was profound :haha: :haha:

She sounds like a keeper. I want one also, but too many projects already...

Oooh! You are fortunate, Herman. I think HengLong's Merkava is their best offering yet. I was thrilled by all the little detail goodies that come with the tank. Enjoy! Enjoy! Enjoy!

Well played Bride - she obviously is about to hit you up to spend more money on dance outfits for the daughters!

Nice one Herman, and you didn't even need to sell your soul! She's a keeper, for sure!

Yeeeeeeeeee$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ you are EXACTLY right.
Star Casino Accommodation for end of year concert(that Im actively being discouraged from attending :problem: ) and the 2K worth of costumes to go with it.
The price of this tank will just be the room service bill, I can see it. :'( :'(

Its actually quite an odd one mate. Its a same-same tank sound wise, but has a super fast turret rotation speed and lots of other fruity bits play with.
Im really looking forward to getting this one done, especially now this vehicle is now to the forefront of the combat vision which is tragic but innevitable.
