Hey everyone! Been lurking here for a few days and decided its time to chime in. I have 2 Heng Long Tigers, 1 Heng Long Pershing, 1 Trumpeter T-34 and I have a Hobby Engine Leopard coming in a few days. Couldnt afford the ultra expensive Tamiya. Anybody got the Hobby Engine version? I know its a piece of crap but I had to have one. My Pershing runs great and is in the process of a rebuild. Took the sideskirts and baggage off, moved the .50 cal. forward in front of commanders cupola, drilled out the .30 cal. and put the LED behind it, drilled the gunners sight in the mantlet, cut out the red LED from the mantlet MG position, extended the barrel and ordered a bunch of metal parts from backyardarmor.com. One of my Tigers will be a mid war version and I just finished getting all the metal aftermarket late war parts and decals. My other Tiger gave up the ghost with a fried receiver and I ordered 2 replacment receiver boards from MATO. I asked MATO about a new muzzle brake and they gave me an entire barrel with mantlet for FREE!! The T-34 runs OK but pulls to the left. Its still new so maybe it needs to be broken in as that side seems a little stiff. Anyway any thoughts on the Hobby Engine 1/16 Leopard is appreciated. So far I have a Tamiya metal barrel for it and will probably need replacemant tracks as the stock ones are rubber band type.
