I no what you mean ! Theres so many tanks out there they could of made lol it just shows how out of touch heng long are with the customers and that they want! There's plenty of german tanks out there but we need to see more British stuff like the Churchill and comet! That would be a start! I'm sure people would snap them up then ! I wonder if heng long did a customer survey on that they would like!! Cos to me they only asked hong kong lol

I was just surfing the internet this lunch time to see if it was available yet, and then I find all this :D

I'm definately up for one, would prefer the the Tamiya Leopard but too tight to get one so this fits the budget ;)

Bit disappointed to find it using the standard gearbox configuration. I thought with it been able to do close to 50mph it have something different to the WW2 tanks. But that's got me thinking about a twin motor/rx18 mod to keep speed high but increase torque and all that space inside. Off to the drawing board B|

Hi Chris ,That is a big tank ,can see a SLU going in there very nicely.Would be nice to battle a Tamiya Leopard with this.Have to make it faster than a standard gearbox need very fast motors for it.
