Canadian Korean War M4A3E8

Here are some pics of my first Tamiya build. It was awesome. I highly recommend anyone into RC Tanks to build atleast one Tamiya. It is totally worth the cost. I am hooked on Tamiya now!

I am waiting for the spare track links from Whitewolf in Ottawa (thanks again dude!)

Radio: Spektrum DX5e
Turret: Mato Sherman
Barrel: Nick Aguilar
Tank Commander: Modified HL German tank crewman
