Centurion Tank
Good Day Fellow Tankers!
When is someone going to manufacture a 1/16 scale RC Centurion Tank? Or even another British Tank, like a Cromwell, Comet, Firefly, Crusader, or Churchhill. It seems that we have lots of German Armor, some Russian and American Armor, but what about British Armor? And for the Modern Armor Enthusiasts, I think a Challenger 2 would be rather nice. Any other thoughts?
Happy Tanking Guys!

RE: Centurion Tank
We have all been waiting for these tanks. Guess these tank manufacturers put out what they want and in spite of many people showing them what the market wants, they continue with KT ad nauseum. At least we now have a VVSS Sherman and the possibility of now having accurate Fireflys and many other Sherman variants. The New KVs have added a bit but the long promised T-54/55 still isn't here. A few guys have converted tanks to Cromwells that look pretty nice, but I'd really like to see a Centurian, Crusader Mk IV or Matilda.

It amazes me that there has not been a single British subject offered in 1/16 by one of the major manufacturers.

RE: Centurion Tank
The Crusader-lV looks grrrreat. uhu idea lets all write to HL about suggesting some British tanks like the Crusader, Comet, Firefly and Centurion. It's just a thought.
I've sent an e-mail to Hl about more allied tank like British tanks.

RE: Centurion Tank
Nice!......I've always had a soft spot for the Crusader....great tank just a bit undergunned...If you think about it, everyone praises the t34 forbeing the first"sloped armour" tank,but I personallythink that the Crusader was the first tank to play with sloped armour(even if it is just the turret).......
