[malc]

hi to all, i'm trying to decide which tank to purchase without spending too much. i believe the heng longs are good value but i like to build. has anyone built one of the small scale tamiyas. if so, what is the performance, fun factor and kit like? any suggestions would be welcome and photos also......many thanks, malc

Hi Malc never had one but here is a video of the panther on youtube it seems to move like the bigger ones but without sound hope this helps.

Excellent video,very impressive tank for that smaller scale.Wonder if it has the same high quality gearbox as the 1/16 just scaled down or plastic gears? Blake

Hi Mate,

Go about 15 or so posts down to my Tale of Two cats post in
the Tamiya build section. My 1/25th and 1/35th scale RC Tamiya
Panthers. Searched the web hi and low can't find much on the
new release Tamiya 1/35th RC Tanks? They now have a Sherman,
T34/85, Panzer IV out as well.

My little Panther goes well but she is a carpet puppy, not much
good outside, great for a rainy day to stur up the dog!

Hi,

Go around 15 or so posts down within the Tamiya build section and you
will find a few pic's of my Tamiya !/25th and !/35th RC Panthers.
(A Tale of Two Cats)

They have plastic gears and I would have to say they are carpet cats,
not much good outside, don't have the power of their 1/16th scale
cousins. Great inside for a rainy day to stur up the dog.

I have searched the net hi and low to find more on the new released
Sherman and T34/85, not much out there, the killer is their cost, more
than a Hen Long 1/16th RC Tank!

They are all around £125 - £150 all incluse but no sound etc.

My local hobby shop has a PZ IV and Sherman in stock
