Hey guys, Mr. Indecisive here again!
Ihave been posting i dont know how many things asking if I should get one or the other RCtank. Sorry. But now that Christmas is over and I have got all m money from the parents(thanks mom and dad) I am finally getting a new addition to my tank collection, which is actually only a Matorro Kingtiger with a custom paint job. I am stuck between choosing a Matorro Jagdtiger w/paint job or a pre-built/painted Andrew Designs Kettenkrad. The Jagdtiger will cost $500.00 and the Kettenkrad $470.00 so there really isnt that much of a price difference. I am not getting a Tamiya tank because I just don't like Tamiya due to a past expierence with a 1/35 scale model that ended up being sent to a dark place (aka the trash can) after about 18 hours of build time. So don't recommend Tamiya.

Thank you for your help,
Zack
PS: If there are any RCtank clubs in Missouri or Illinios please contact me, I havent been able to find a single one and my Kingtiger wants to kil some Shermans.

Where are you getting the Jagdtiger?

Hey Zack, What was so bad with the 1;35 Tamiya Tiger? I have been using Tamiya and Dragon for years for museum work (albeit 90% US vehicles) and found them to be excellent. Assembly is clear and detailing is superb.

Sounds like a pretty high price for a kettenkrad...is this a large scale RC?

The problem I had with my Tamiya Kit (1/35 Panzerkampfwagen II) was that the parts that were in the kit were not fitting together and despite using a hobby glue I wasnt able to make any of the parts stick.The Kettenkrad is is 1/16 scale, and it costs so much due to the fact that its pre built and painted for those like me who don't have that talent and it has to ship from Australia.
