So far I have 3 Tiger 1"s and one Pzr3. But I have sold my first Tiger 1 my buddy bugged me long enough till I gave in and sold it to him and then turned around and bought my 2nd Tiger 1 then came my 3rd one. I'm seriously thinking about getting one of the new Pzr4's. The Pzr4 was never one of of my favorite panzers. The first 1/16th scale tank I ever bought was way back in 1975 when I bought a Bandai Pzr4. Never realy like it but think it was because of the round ball like mussle brake. I'm sold on HL German tanks and Maytotoys Canada has given me excellent service not a fault or problem with any of the tanks I've gotten from also pleased with the shipping time as well but that could be because I'm from Ontario and so are they

My Tiger I HL.

Tamiya or Heng Long? For next, I hope in a PzIV, but a PzIV Spearhead 1/6.

Wow - the only thing that gives it away is the missing lifting mushroom in the turret storage bin. But WOW.

Nice work but you might check some reference photos as i think your commander's hatch is facing the opposite way as the prototype. not capping just informing.

Thank you. There seem to be the "HL commander's cupola mount way" and the "historical photo way".

Not a rivet counter, so either "way" works for me. LOL.

The cupola is loose on my model Pz3 to ease the install task for the Tamiya TBU socket and TBU.

Really find the 2nd to last image interesting: Normandy area Pz4 tanker pretending to dine on a bucket of paint.

Probably the last few good days of his young life.

Hey pcomm,

Mebbe he's sniffing it to see if there is enough gasoline in the concentrate to begin using it? But yea, its unusual to see crews mugging for the camera.

Is it possible thats a 'recent' photo with a restored Pz. 4?

Just askin,
WhiteWolf

LOL, he's not pretending to eat paint, he's actually eating food from his mess kit.

Outstanding, welcome back.

That photo is a WWII snap shot and is the real deal. Past that don't know the image history. The image I have is large and it does look like 2 cans of paint up there, but your mess kit is cool. Looks just like USA Boy Scout gear too. LOL.
My digital WWII image collection is from various sources and some were passed on (in shoe or cigar boxes filled with little b/w photos) by relatives who were wearing US Army flight, infantry, engineer and TD uniforms
in Normandy and other sectors of the ETO. But at this point I can not tell which image (friend or foe) came from who or where, other than they are all clearly not reenactors or images made to look vintage.

googlydoogly that mess kit you posted is a post war set, ww2 sets did not have the insert and didn't have the dimples on the main body. These dimples were only on the post war mess tins they were there to measure the amount of liquid etc in the tin. But they are close enough to show what the man in the tank may be eating from.
