M-1A2 looks impressive, but the video shows a one speed early HL thing with little or no fine control of speed. Wierd with red lights for headlamps, although the paint and weathering looks decent. Like all of these models, would probably be an easy up grade. Promo clip was very well done, including the knock-down hit on the Russian and fairly accurate turret speed.

Hi

I had one of these and quickly got rid of it. It was single speed, rubber band tracks, gun elevation always made the machine gun go. It looked OKish but the finish on my one was way overdone and did not look realistic. Several folks on the site were upgrading them to HL electronics and tracks but I did not bother as I am sure one day one of the other manufacturers will bring out something better - plus money went towards my new HL Jagdpanther.

cheers
