RE: Blitzkrieg Armour 1/6 Panzer IV Review
The Panzer IV has been sitting collecting dust long enough so I've decided to sell it cheap.
I have it in a local hobby shop (The Hobby Stop) in Seaford, DE. 302-629-3944
I just dont have the time to do the needed work.
I think these were fetching around $7,000 all equiped back in the Spearhead days.
I told them at the Hobby Stop that I want $2,000 out of it.
I figure it should sell quick at that price with the 7 ch. radio incl.
And YES, I'm taking quite a loss at $2000.

No sound unit. The motors are very quiet just giving a low hum.
The rest of the sound is coming from the tracks. The smoke unit
is burning airtool oil.
Here's some more video.

Mcswood, what you paid for this tank is your business but these tanks where heavily discounted and yours was less than that price, $2000 is very cheap for a 1/6 tank, will you be including all the parts you left off

I paid $3750 for the tank as shipped. With the 7ch. Futaba radio package
and battery there's well over $4000 of tank here.
This was greatly reduced from the prices talked about at Steeldragons and
some other sites.
So I guess I was REALLUCKY.
It GOES with all it came with (brass, white metal etc.) I mentioned earlier in this
post what it didn't come with.
My review doesn't help me in selling the tank ( I think we all agree there ) but it stands.
They aren't worth what I paid.but if there was a bunch available they would be worth
$2000.
Being that there isn't any available except this one the price becomes very good.
The Hobby Stop is selling it now for maybe just local pick up.

Any review is no more than someones opinion.
So you need to weigh mine against all the others out there.
It is exactly like I described it. No more, no less.
I'll never make a good salesman but I can say I'm honest.
That's worth more to me than the tank or the money.

RE: Blitzkrieg Armour 1/6 Panzer IV Review
This is where the $7000 came from. As I said, this was for a fully equiped kit. http://www.steeldragons.net/armorpaxpanzerIV.htmlThere's not much else to go on as to prices.I would have stated that I got it at a reduced price earlier if Isaw that it somehow mattered.My mistake.

RE: Blitzkrieg Armour 1/6 Panzer IV Review
I'm entertaining the idea and I only live about 100 miles from you. I wanted toask a couple of questions....... First ,have you corrected the gear issues you mentioned a while back(what else have you fixed/or needs fixing)? Does it come with a sound module of any kind(I didn't hear anything on the video)?....thanks

I dropped it off at the Hobby Stop for them to do the work but decided to just let it go instead.
They do a lot of machine work there and have the needed parts to make it right.
No changes / fixes have been made. No sound unit.
At this price it's "as is".
Like I said it's in ashop that can do the work if the "new owner" wants them to
continue.
