Steve, I had an operational T-34 wich has done a few European battles, But I've completly disassembled the tank because there were a few things that were broken down. Also I did not like the wooden construction of the tank, It hasn't the mean heavy look of a real tank. And I think The T-55 Will be very cool when it's build out of metal. And if it's driving with a gas engine it will be a monster.
