Ay up Phil, that's the sort of rumor that could get an engine a bad name. :D


Could be worse, this little German classic's had three engine's to my knowledge and still sounded like a right bag of bolts, I was there on it's debut standing near the guy with the white hat.
Still..... it could have been worse..... it could have been a Panther on it's debut ..............1943. :roll:

How about a Stolly towing a Chieftain :lol: now there's a diorama. 8)

Hi Guys
Still hoping for a universal carrier .
Nice size should be easy to transport and lots of scope for detailing.

Regards

Derek

Hi All,

What about a Matilda 1. A cracking little tank that will be easy to transport and something a little different from the heavy weights

Regards

Dave

A Siberian Hamster?

The A11 driver doesn't look very happy with his ride :(
Nice rivets but not many :cry:

He'd been happier with this sports car A15 upgrade, as long as there weren't any sand, German tanks or guns around.
Plenty of rivets too :D

Armortek did the Ultimate Panther Kit.

How about the Ultimate CVR(T) Kit, you could build it as a Scorpion, Scimitar, Spartan, Sultan, Samaritan or Samson or switch between the different variants.

On second thoughts, maybe not such a good idea. Someone would turn it into the abomination of a Salamander.

In case anyone was wondering (but I doubt it):

2 RTR OPFOR Salamander. Go to Luggershall Vehicle Depot, select your Scorpions, take them to Canada, chat up a hardware wholesaler in Medicine Hat and corner the market in drainpipes and oil drums, add a lot of hard work, fit SAAB DFWES and voila, Salamander, representing T-64, to provide enemy forces for the British Battlegroups. 2RTR were the first OPFOR in 1995.
