Tanks & Trolls

Leopard 2A6

The latest addition to Tamiya's tank range. This thing is AWESOME. With new inovations and technology Tamiya have really pulled out the stops with this thing. Performance is stunning blowing all other other models through the entire range clean out of the water, well, to be expected really when representing a modern MBT! Now come on Tamiya...WHERE IS THAT CHALLENGER II!!!

I have to be honest, I was never a fan of the Leo, but during the build I was definately won over, it is a very nice looking machine!	The Leo has the new gun stabilizer system fitted, looks fantastic in operation on rough ground!	The biggest Tamiya Tank to date
Close up showing some of the stowage I added. Couldn't really go to town because those Germans are so damn neat and tidy but I thought it looked a little bare without anything onboard!	Big cat on the prowl!	Shot of the rear engine deck
The crewman look particularly glum considering the machine they are in!	It's the little things that make a difference. scratch built the little padlocks after seeing them on a reference photo, no they dont work!	Starting to look the part after a few runs through the mud. Notice the brake lights, all in all the lighting system works well but whoeve came up with the fibre optic sytem should be shot with Sh*t, grrrr!
