TIGERTANK 301

Post by Robin Ellis »

It is with much reluctance that I am putting my tank for sale.

This is one of the very first models to be completed in 2005, since then it has appeared at numerous military and model shows, and in all that time I have never had to replace anything except new tracks. Once I had a speed controller fail, and that is all.
GENERAL SPECIFICATION

Best Tigertank at Armorteks first open day in 2007
Strongly featured in 2010 film 'JACKBOOTS ON WHITEHALL'
Crew of five, four of which are animatronic and have had their faces professionally repainted.

Photobucket no longer allows pasting a photo into your thread unless you pay them a $399.00 ransom. Hence virtually no one uses Photobucket any more.

Try https://postimages.org

Simple, fast and incredibly easy to use.
