Just wanted to pass this along: Just saw a '1/4 Scale King Tiger Remote Control' on ebay. Location is New York.

Using 1/6 figures on it just illustrates the problem with 1/4. They look like the Little Rascals took over.

Rubber pads and that paint/decal job is an insult to a $7000 tank.

Old MSgt

Yeah, that poor tank needs saving. With some TLC and paint job it would have it's 'dignity' back.

Heck, it's 'Make An Offer'. 17 days to go in the auction and there may be no bids or any offers!

I am by my own admission an inferior painter compared to most on this forum but whoever painted that KT has me beat- clearly they sucked too deeply from their bong before picking up their spray equipment....

and what is with the tree-trunk sized coaxial MG 34?

yeaaaah the model needs a serious make over. And jettison the munchkins draped all over...

YEEAH!!! What Tanque said!! That KT needs a good loving 'Rescue Home'!

...but don't chuck the munchkins cause they've tried to be GOOD 1/6 soldiers, just had a BAD owner... HEY! I got an idea! Send'em all over to ME cause they'd be HAPPY reassigned as tank crewmen!!!

HJ the very junior division... :-)

Hey! Out of curiosity I asked the seller what are the measurements were (without the barrel) and what does it weigh.

He quickly responded that it was 6 feet long, 3 feet wide, and about 33 inches tall. And the weight is '300 pounds (+/-)'.

I just looked it up on the 'Mark 1' site and the measurements are correct and it sez, (by the conversion table) it weighs 550 pounds.

poor thing needs a good paint job aaaaaaaaand it's cheaper than the HL 1/6 all metal Tiger I ....lol


if that even comes out

the paint job is not the only problem which looks brushed on, this seems to be a lowrider edition notice the idler wheel and sprockets are almost on the ground meaning that the suspension has collapsed, whatever that thing sticking out of the left side of the turret is it’s on the wrong side the coaxle machine gun on German tanks was on the right side, as for rubber pads on the track face ????????? for some reason the gun is in the full recoil position and no doubt has been damaged whoever buys this could well have a large repair bill, one good thing is the vast amount of markings look as though they are stick on decals and will peel off there are no other good sides to this thing

As cool as that is, i can have all the tamiya in 1/16 and still have money left over.
