We need a Leopard 2
I think unimax should make it.
The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent.

Definitely.
Leopard 2, Merkava IV, Challenger 2. Anything but another M1.

A Merkava would be totally awesome! It would be nice to have the back portion open up for the troops to load into, and then an alternative APC version could be made without the main turret.
Best,

Id definitely like a Merk first but the Lep 2 is also a great tank. I saw an r/c Leopard in dubai, I instantly fell in love with it but it was like 3 grand

I agree, Unimax should make a Leopard 2. And a Merkava. I just think that they should do it in 1:32!

chap mei made a merkava a few years ago. It's a bit under scale, around 1/21 but still a decent size. Troop compartment opens. The trick is finding one. I got one on ebay a couple of years ago.

No separate tracks/wheels = No sale.
I wondered how long it would take for someone to bring up the Chap Mei Merk.
