New to 1:16 Armour as of Today

Post by Fritzkrieg »

Hello,
I was reffered to this forum, by some members of the Fighting 1:18. I've always enjoyed seeing the variety of 1:16 armour available, but until now I've been dedicated to 1:18 only. As luck would have it I was at a local Toy Soldier Show, and found a Hen Long Tiger I for a steal. The tank needs a little work with the gun (Won't fire). I thought I would just get it fixed and resell it, but as I've been scowering, the 1:16 armour sites for a quick fix for my gun problem, I found myself very excited, about all the possibilites for this Tiger as a new pet project. Perhaps this could be the first of many 1:16 projects to come.

Hello Fritzkreig, The Tiger is a great tank,and their are many parts available.If the gun is giving you trouble their not expensive to replace or if you prefer repair check the search function for some information as their are several post concerning the airsoft gun. Welcome you have taken the first step to 1/16 scale addiction. Regards Blake
