The pics at Foxhole and Badcat are probably about the best you are going to find from an etailer, or you can always search the google image database and see what you can find. Links below for the BCA and Foxhole pics which can all be enlarged for a better detail view....

Good! :o

And, if it isn't too much asked, could you make overall pics of the tank? particularly the "lamp" ( don't know how it's called)

Sorry for my "Extreme Grammar Fails" , i'm doing my best to make it understandable :lol:

Here you go! I might add that I really like this tank a lot. It is built well and very heavy!

Oh Thank you! :shock:

Was the "lamp" on the stock M48a3's or is it something uncommon?

Looks like I'm gonna need to do some recon to find the fording exhaust. I have two of these tanks, and neither one has the exhaust. Now where did I put those boxes? :?

the M48 seems to be a pretty neat piece of ground armor. nice. :D

Didn't the original S1 M-48 (from 2001) come with the fording exhaust pipe and the newer repaint not come with one? I recall hearing that somewhere. I have the original version complete with the exhaust pipe.

Overall, this is a great tank. Both it, the Bradley, the M-41, and the M113 show what 21c was capable of doing in regards to the detail on their modern (post WWII) tanks. BBI and FOV have a long ways to go to catch up. 21c really should have expanded their modern armor lineup :wink:

Yep, they must have busted the mold for it or something because it was only on the first release version.

tmanthegreat, you are so correct! All the vehicles you mentioned are simply incredible! And, way overlooked by collectors who, for whatever reason, just either by-passed them or never had the chance to look one over in person.

The Walker Bulldog has complete engine detail, multiple opening hatches/compartments throughout the tank as well as a removable turret to expose the interior detail just like the German Tiger Tank.

The M113 has always been a personal favorite because of the level of detail and versatility of this important US armor piece. PH's addition of the custom ACAV turret makes it a fantastic battlefield piece!

The M48 Patton is by far the best value tank on the market BAR NONE! Not only is it HUGE it also is one of 21st Century Toys' most detailed armor pieces. We often get calls from surprised customers who buy the Patton and then tell us how amazing the tank actually is. It too, is one of my favorites.

Thank you for bringing this topic up!

PH or Grunt - here is another item that needs to be molded and made.

You guys could make some good money on providing parts for XD items:
-tank treads
-gun barrels
-MG and mounts
ETC, ETC...

PH made me a small rotor blade for my Huey that works great!

Food for thought, Gentleman...
