RC Tank Warfare community hobby forum

Hi All, i like my postman he brings me boxes with nice tanks inside today it was my mato sherman









appart from the barrel and the front being a bit to big and a need of a respray i like it a lot it runs well and is very controlable after seeing some of the write up's i thought it was going to be quite cheep and not well made but im very pleased with the quality and it feels well made not tthat im a expert by any means but i like it

and since this top, turret and a box full of spares arrived from firefly keith sunday ( cheers bud)i can now make a E8 or a firefly ,




first job fit tamiya top to mato hull now where did i put my hammer..............

cheers andy

Lucky bloody you.............
Enjoy it and keep us posted.....

Looks nothing like the box top picture but I like it

As said, over sized gun is mad, possibly from kelly's heroes sherman?

wow another Ronson for the axis to turn into a "Tommy cooker" L

I would LIKE my postman a lot to if he bought tanks to my door . Your Sherman don't look to bad and with a little work ( or a lot if the fancy takes you ) it will look the biz. All the best for now
