Default 1:16 Wish List

It's time to take a poll.

If you had your wish, what 1:16 scale RC tank NOT CURRENTLY produced would you like to see as a new model? Models would be comparable to Tamiya's quality & compatable with the standard I/R Battle System for RCACN regulated combat.

Thanks.

For the Allies...

- a decently scaled M36 turret for the Tamiya Sherman hull.
- an RC jeep, using the Tamtech RC gear.
- a deuce, combining RC semi & TLT axles.

( a Firefly mantlet, barrel & brake may be in the works )

For the Germans:

- halftrack of some type (251 or FAMO)
- Panther (yea, I know of the German metal kit)
- rebuilt Kubel with Tamtech gear (and mod-kits for those of us having the old ones)

Misc...

- good plans (or a kit!) for a LCM-3 that could carry a deuce & trailer, or a Sherman.
- more figure kits (especially ~ALLIED~ ones, like a tanker with the ~right~ helmet)
- Tamiya recognition of the RC tankers... like they recognise & sponsor the car racers...

M3A1 Grant in a scale large enough where the 37mm gun could fire 6mm
pellets and the 75mm would fire paintballs.

You may have seen this............it is very expensive, but would be incredible to own. All of the tanks that they build make the 1:16 Tamiyas look like toys. [X(]

First pick would be T-34.
The T-34 was supposed to be the best tank of the WWII era. Some of the American and German tanks that were produced at that time may have had heavier armor or bigger guns, but the T-34 was so simple and quickly built that it dominated the battlefields with overwhelming numbers.

My vote would be for the T-34, too. [sm=thumbup.gif] I am going to get a WSN Trumpeter and do the conversion for the Tamiya battle system, I think.

I want either a challenger 2 or M1A2 in 1:16 scale. So far the only modern tank in that scale is the leopard2.
(Unless you get a custom job.)

I would like to see a few tanks from every era hit the mainstream market 



A Maus would be awesome but probably not much fun to drive considering its lack of decent mobility.



I would think it would be easy to make one since its not much more than a huge rectangular box. I did see a static resin model made in Germany that was pretty neat not sure what the scale was though. I probably saw it here, lately my memory is on vacation without me [&:]






No order, I would just be happy to see any of them on the market 






Sheridan 



T-34/85



Chaffee



M60



Challenger



M1A2
