I've always preferred the /76 over the /85. It's got a very much sleeker shape than the later /85 - all the angles line up nicely.

From a production point of view, the huge cast turret on the /85 might be a bit of a headache, though the /76 seems to have quite a few curves on the turret.

Would be good to hear those Russian tracks clattering around the place.

Adrian.

PS - I'd still rather have a Matilda though Mark :wink:

As I was right on thr Comet :D I went down onto the promenade this afternoon and sneaked into gypsy Petrolengos stall. The coast was clear as she was having a fag out the back :lol:

I looked into her magical crystal ball and hey presto Armoteks new tank will be a Panzer II :idea:

That would be ideal for new comers to this fabulous 1/6th armoured world.

Regards Stewart

How about this monster ??? Now that Mark has the new HAAS machines , Just think how good this would be !! All alloy , high detail hull and running gear , Dave Dibbs white metal parts . It would make a tiger look small .. Maybe Gill would not like to pack this one .. Dale

Beauty...I was worried there for a sec... :P)
It would be easy on the hip pocket nerve which makes it a sure winner whenever it comes out.

No need for guessing any more!

Lee is correct, it will be a Panther (or a JP) :wink:
Sold out quickly some 3 years ago so it is now time for a new batch.
Common economical sense and we can’t have too many 1:6th RC Panthers in this world!

Make is an Ausf A (you have now at least 2 of them in UK to take measure from) and you can put me on the list for a kit.

Cheers

Yes it will be a Panther that will be coming out after the PZII.
I want both of them but the bank manager wants me to get the little one first... ;)

Brian,

I believe you are right about the pattern, however wrong about the model, they have done 2 versions of the Panther. I think it will be the release of the first kit totally reworked....The Panzer lV.

Mark-Gil,

Did I win a prize :shock:

Your analysis is good. How long has it been since the Panzer 4? Almost 7 years! Its long overdue for a rerun with all the GOOD bits and pieces on it.

Mark/Gill can I get seconds?
