Everyone does realize this thread was resurrected by Lamp02 responding to a postfrom about 7 years ago, right?

I've read about bringing things back from the dead ... but really ... LOL ...

I agree with you.  I just started with the tanks, and I wish I could have done it sooner.  I collected 1/1250 scale model ww2 warships.  Couldn't do anything with them except look at them.

At 75, I'm collecting tanks.  Who would have thought.  

I only paint them, and dirty them, but when it comes to the electronics, I'm lost.

Perhaps a mod could split this off into a separate topic, as the discussion here has nothing to do with the original (7 year old) post?

It is a little strange to bring up a post with that heading from that far back......

The guy who started that post last loged in .....7-25-06..................Long,long,long gone.......

A hell of a lot of people have come and gone since 2006.............

Makes you wonder how many tanks (what ever brand ) are sitting on the shelf collecting dust like mine are...........[:-]

Your right, I'm sorry.  Old man got carried away.

H.l. Had a bad reputation.  I received a sturm. 3, and the socket wheel came off.  One of my tiger 1's came with a broken hatch, and a missing rear mud flap.  Thank God, none came with an electrical problem.  

Mato's mr. Murphy, seem's to be the customer service so far.  I ordered a couple of tanks from Nathan in okla.  he's building them, so I'm waiting.
Don't know if I'll have any problems.  I hope not.

Taigen tanks are built like the hl's, but have better quality control.  I have taigen's, and I was able to see and test them at the dealer.  (1, king tiger, 1 , tiger 1, 1 rv-1). They run great, even on the rug.  The muzzle velocity is better with taigen.  They tell you not to run them outside.

The NEAD group meets in the Mahwah, NJ area, about 1.5 hours from you. It might be worth it to drop in on a battleday.

Thank you, but there is a problem.  I go to dyalisis 3 times a week.  It's hard for me to travel.  It's a good idea tough.  I will suggest it to my friends. 

Thanks again. Lamp02

hello everyone,

i am the OP.

listen everyone.....

i figure i should get all this set straight.

the tank ordered (Mato Pershing) showed up at the wrong time.
i directed alot of my anger at this tank. i directed all my negitive 'vibes' towards this tank.\

i realize that this item might have faults, but the anger and ill-willi directed at it might have been pre-mature.

i have had the tank for about a week.
with the advice of the board members i fixed the problem i had with this item.

i am checking the Mato siye, because i am buying another tank from them.

in the end, just so i can be clear,
-the Mato tank i recieved, in the end, actually ended up being alot better than i thought it would be.

for all people who are thinking about getting into the 'tanking' hobby, please, Mato tanks are IMHO the best way to go.

Seriously, this thread shouldn't be used anymore for replying to posts from 7 years ago when the discussion first took place, besides, the poster you are admonishing is long gone, & hasn't been active on the forum since 2006 either so they have already stopped apologizing.

The thread really shouldn't be used for other unrelated discussions either, because then, even more unsuspecting members will be duped into believing this is a current complaint & possibly post too.

Please let this thread die again, there is no sense posting in a thread that has an original complaint from that long ago, which by the way, the harsh criticism was retracted by the same poster later on if anyone bothered to actually read through the entire thread.

Do we really have to keep seeing a thread that has been inactive since 2006, with a title saying, "Mato Pershing Tank .... IT SUCKS!!!!" in it, at the top of the forum threads in 2013?


LETITDIE ALREADY!!!!

LOL

Ok, seems that members can't get the message even though it's been posted several times. After this thread was reactivated the discussion has nothing to do with the original topic. If you want to discuss an issue simply start a new thread, but don't hijack an old thread.

Since the thread went almost 5 years with no activity, I would say that it's safe to say this thread has ran it's course. And since people want to talk off topic here I'm going to put an end to it.
