    Great looking replica. I saw I don't know how many months ago? a video from Utube that showe some college student who built a 1/3rd? size fully functional Tiger tank. It showed him driving it around and such and the main Gun actually shot some smoke from it. That was a cool "Toy". I think his was built out of plywood??
