M26

The M26 Pershing entered service early in 1945, just early enough to see action in WW2. The manufacturers call this the Snow Leopard, reason unknown!

This model is again truely outstanding, the detail is excellent, and there is minimal assembly required. NOW IN STOCK; NEWversion with sound effects and exhaust smoke, has to be seen and heard to be believed!!

The extra kit, helmets, ammo boxes, crates etc. stowed on the otuside of the hull, and the towing ropes and shackles on the rear are outstanding, it just cries out for some detail modelling, and I might have a go at this one myself!

After unpacking simply clip on the .50 Cal MG, fit the Commander if required, charge the batteries, put 8 AA batteries in the remote (batteries not included) , stick on the transfers, load in some BB's and away you go, simplicity itself!!

This tank is available to order in the SHOP now, delivery takes about 10 days maximum.

Specifications: Scale 1/16th, Price £110 (plus 4.5% if paying by credit card in the shop, included in displayed price)

We only sell this item to those aged 17+ as it does have a BB gun, and BB pellets, also as you can see the small detail is not ideal for small fingers.

M26 front view
Looks pretty good doesn't it?The cam net is for show, not included. Note the .50 Calibre MG on the roof
m26 left side
The level of detail can be seen well in this photo. The gun uses standard 6mm BB's. The turret has a 320' traverse, so it won't go round in a full circle, this is because of the internal mechanisms.
m26 rear
Most items of equipment are seperate mouldings. The turret turns through 320 degrees and the gun elevates and depresses. The tank can steer and slew on its tracks. The track links are individually steel pinned and the road wheels have independant suspension.

The Model comes with a decent remote (the four sliders have no functions, you don't need them), rechargeable battery and 200 6mm BB's.
There are preset demonstrations and you can make up your own.
The Second turret hatch houses a safety on and off switch for the gun and allows 'bombing up' of the BB's. The set and tank can be set to 3 different wavelengths so you can have 3 tanks running together.
The red LED is a warning that the gun is going to fire, but the gun can be isolated for safety if required.
