Hello Totenkopf, 1/8 is an excellent scale, especially for the larger modern tanks. Navspook, sorry about your spill, excellent model, good luck with your repairs. Thank you t72 for the Kenny Kong link. I own one of Kenny’s 1/8 M1’s and it’s a beast. I really like the RC armory product and I’m sure you will find it very challenging-and rewarding. Giant scale is not for the faint of heart, in any discipline (aircraft, automobile, armor, nautical). I’m into metal tanks mostly, but I did purchase the figures from RC Armory and he sent along a track link and pin sample (very nice). I also have a 1/8 figure from Kenny Kong. It looks at first glance like a 1/6 (GI Joe) but I haven’t measured / compared.
