The first ones were copied from Tamiya, the Pershing and Tiger, full of inaccuracies, out of scale, etc. Since over 10 years ago, Heng Long, a Chinese toy manufacturer has been producing RC tanks. But with my trained eye, after having read so many magazines and seen models, told me that both of them had a lot of potential to meet my expectations. In general they’re painted with wrong colors, with black plastic exposed wheels look like toys more appropriated for little kids than for older children.

The HL tanks don’t say a lot when you take it out the box. Some months ago a local importer started offering them and I had the opportunity to see them with my own in live. Two years ago the Challenger 2 appeared first and then the Abrams in the A2 version Though they always liked me, especially the Abrams, I let them go to keep myself focused in other projects.
