I don't know about Borgebear, but they are supposed to be available on RCtank.de at the end of April.

A Matilda II would be sublime, and even a tightwad like me would let the moths out of my wallet for a Tongde priced specimen.
I like to pretend the manufacturers do keyword searches on this forum to decide their next tank. Matilda Matilda Matilda.

I'd be up for one. Then, perhaps someone will get around to doing something Japanese or Italian... and, hah silly of me, the most produced tank in the history of the world, the T-55. But why would anyone want any of these when we can have more Tigers?!!

There is T-55 by Hooben. Modeling companies try to reduce costs. So, for example, most of the time the same standard gearboxes are used. Unfortunately, they will not fit in small Italian and Japanese tankettes.
