ODDBALL's Sherman from "Kelly's Heroes"
Just thought I'd add a little life to this section. It's missing a few details but I'mma workin' on them as we speak.
It is 1/16 using stock MATO suspension and tracks, Tamiya lower and upper hull plus the high bustle turret, Elite Armor 76MM aluminum barrel and Nicks M34A1 mantlet. It IS equipped with a Tamiya electronics... the M26 Pershing sounds (but no recoil just like the shows tank didn't have) and the IMPACT battle system installed. Here's the build: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_96...tm.htm#9603584 Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isU_GiH4qFA And a couple of pics. Jeff |

The Sherman looks great chap.
A guy used to make the oddball figure but I haven't been able to fine one for a project I did (Heng Long hull and cut up Tamiya Lunchbox shell)

I believe it was Frank (fynsdad) at http://www.rctankregiment.com/rctankforum/index.php that sent me the bust.
I would try him first. Jeff |
