description  Sounds like a bull in a bad mood!
If you wonder.. just picture in your mind.. a V8 'old style'... My first DMD/MF tank ,
Was looking for one for a while now since i got hit by the tank virus.
These tanks are soooo diffrent compairing to the 'old style' tanks.
Rock solid gearboxes, and so many gadgets. like shaking when the gun is fired.
(hint, download the tamiya promotional video's, that gets you sold right away!)
But, just -the- selling and wanne-have deal with this tanks is the sound of the engine.
When i first got the Pershing, first thing i have done is play with the throtle & shoot the main gun

Love this thing, got it in a very nice trade with Mad Zero,
A much recommend person do deal/trade/swap with!

Came RTR, even with the battery charged
As bonus this is one has metal tracks, he stole it from the good-old-sherman(s)
Hans did the waterslide decals on the tank itself, as he has a more steady hand at those then me



Bit about the fine-tuning, this time i have done the paint job myself for a change
TS-5 ( olive drab ) as base color
Did not want to go for the full-weathered look but a bit of using-damage was added.
Ask any soldier what he brings to battle... 'loads of junk'
You never know when you are going to get another chance to get another stock of food & ammo right?
At this point still missing camoflage netting, simple reason.. did not make them yet!


Goody's list:
40mhz Skyport (Futaba) 4ch T4YF TX/RX system
Schumo-kits polyamidid khaki wire ZUH09
Tanks N Trolls Sandbags
56001 / 56005 Sherman metal tracks
56014 Sherman tank commander


Another step closer to having all the tanks!
