Default HELP PLEASE?

hi guys, just wondering all those people with the hl bulldog sas tank ive just got a couple of questions.

why buy it and not the other hl tanks?

does the hl sas version of the bulldog have a tow bar and tow shackles?

does it have more power and is it better offroad than the others?

what colour does it come in stock dark green or brown?

I know this is weird because i have loved the pantiger for so long(which i still do) but my local hobby shop has just got it in and i think compared to the pantiger it looks like a more durable and reliable tank to the others.

Just one more thing could any of you guys with the dog post some pics or videos because i am having trouble finding them on the net.

sorry for such the long post and change of mind replies will be greatly appreciated.

kind regrds pantiger man.

i have both (just got the pantiger) but my pantiger is a non smoke and sound. i personally like the bulldog better because it has better ground clearance and it seems that the suspension works better. also all of the vents (i have no idea what they are, i'm not a tank expert.) on the top of the hull are open (could get water in -if its snowing, or just dirt in easier). the bulldogs are closed. i would also recommend a smoke and sound. electronics are better and i love the sound. i still love my pantiger even though its not a ss but i think i like my bulldog more.

Why buy it and not the other HL tanks? Well I assume it's because we like variety and the Walker Bulldog has never been represented in 1/16 radio control before.

It does appear to have tow shackles front and rear.

It may have better power off road but it definitely has higher ground clearance and that certainly helps.

It comes in the usual Olive Drab green.

I think it is a better tank than the HL Panther based on the fact that it is more accurately modeled compared to the real thing than the Pan-Tiger.

IMHO ,the HL Bulldog performs GREAT!!!! Has excellent manueverability and good speed control!!!
A great little tank as far as I am concerned. One of my favorite HL to drive!
My HL S/S Tiger 1 (w/metal tracks) is fun and the Bulldog is right up there with it!!!!!!!!!!!

I just dont like the LED under the copulla.........seems out of place for MG light.

Remove it then. I didn't like the LED on the mantlet of my Pershing even though it was kind of a neat feature to warn when a shot was about to go off...

Once removed, the hole where the LED was mounted looks just like it should for the gunner's sight aperture. Looks accurate now.
