Thanks for pointing the card and colour base out. I have 4 tanks in front of me everyday and I didn't notice the difference in colour base. Yup, I can see my Tiger & Abrams with grey base and picture card whereelse my jagdpanther and t-55 has black base with no picture cards.

Yup, thanks for the "Spot da Difference" info. I too never noticed them yet.

I got 6 Tiger Tank to date. Two from 1st release which had overlapping labels.

Some of the main cannon facing straight ahead, some tilt higher while one turning left and the other right. I assume it can turn 360 degrees.



Got two more M1 Abrams with backdrop card from local mamak shop. One cannon is tilted upwards while the other is downwards.

I have to open, unscrew and switch the tank position to match the directions of the other buddies in the backdrop.

Yes bro, must get add on make a diorama. But i'm just a beginner. Using DIY and improvised thing that i can get. Research through the net

bro, I notice your tank color is very light brown color. Is it true? Or is it the flash?
Coz mine is dark brown color

Oooo it's the flash effect bro..Colour is same

pity...I really like the light brown color...looks like the original Abrams.
Nice camo anyway...next is to build a replica building for the background like this pic

If you have friends working in property development, once project finished and sold out they may have scale models to dispose. Can get some from them to chop chop into smaller sets. Just a thought.

You can try looking at places that sells model trains. I've located one that sells @ 1:72 but lots of civies. I'm planning to build a diorama myself. But I have few in mind. Dunno to build a 1/18 for car diecast or action figure or now this tank models

cool man...do try.

Yes they can. Just like real tanks as well.

Do share the finished work as well yeah

for anyone who still wanna get more 1 Harimau tank

got 1 whole box of 1 Harimau, go get it while stock last
