Default 1/16 Centurion

Should a 1/16 RC Centurion come around, what version would be most popular? Mk 3, Mk 5 or the Isreali Sh'Ot?

I just saw a couple of shows that featured the Centurion. I would like to have two. The first one a Mark 3 and the other the Israeli Sh'Ot.

Aaahhhh! You're thinking too small.

Just get the Mark III and the upgrades & updates will follow to turn it into whatever the heck you want.

Please stop teasing me with the idea of a completely new tank model becoming available(especially one a lot of tankers actually want!)......that's just too much for me to bear![&:]

All of them!!!!!!
I would take anything and everything that was a Centurion. Just do it! But the ones the Israelis used to kick T-54/55 butt would be cool.
Have you been reading my mail? I just got a Centurion in action book in the mail this week and have been drooling all over that book wondering if I should take a shot at it. Sure as heck, if I spend many months and much money building one, HL will come out with it for $150. Maybe if I just say I'm doing one they'll come out with one just to screw with me. Hmmmmmm.

Fantastic. declare a fake build, do a fake build thread, we all make fake comments, and then Hooben or Heng Long will build it. It's a plan, I like it!

Guys I am in with some heavy hitters with CNCmachines looking for wqys to make thier investment pay off. They are very willing and eager to produce the masters for me for two tanks Centurion and T-72.

However I have a lot of things to think about before taking the next step. I don't plan or even want to get rich off these things, howeverI don't want to loose my shirt either. Seems the Centurion is more popular than the T-72.

Okay then so be it. Nick you interesting in suppling the gun tubes?

I am happy with my Centurion Mk5/1

I just found oztruck1's videos and pictures of his Centurion build. It's giving me ideas.

Remember it's not mine.
Oztruck1 posted this back in 2009.
It was his build.

Remember the Mk III had the Twenty  Pounder  gun and the Mk V had the 105.
