Are the Mato tanks not all Heng Longs? The Mato website shows the Pz3 at 46cm long, the Pz4 at 40cm and the KV-1 at 42cm. Maybe we are not looking at the same tanks? Some say Heng Long and some don't. Now I'm confused, again!

Tankmasters right. Barrel length is factored into the total size of the tank. If I recall correctly from the last time I measured my PIII against my KV1, the KV is around 17 inches long and the PIII is roughly 13 inches...this is just hullmeasurement. The Tiger I is wider than the KV-1 and about an inch or two shorter than the KV-1, but if you include the barrel to the Tiger I, it's about 20 inches long. Only way your going to know the actual hull size is if you scale up from areferenceddrawing/model or ask somebody.

The Sturmtiger, Kingtiger, and Sherman is Mato. The T34/85 is WSN Trumpeter. The rest are Heng Longs.
