I ended up getting a ir and a airsoft. Frankly unless I had someone else to play with, there is no poijt in the ir. THe airsoft is fun when screwing around. I end up spending most of my time on both tanks in trying to drive over hard terain. Defiantely go for the metal version though. The plastic just dont cut it with the crap gear boxes n plastic tracks. jagdpanther is a beast of a climber.
