Kitech Challenger 1 Mk3 1/48 Motorized (don't laugh, it's embarrassing)

[activexp]

I don't usually do armour but this kit was cheap and had the novelty of motorization.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A few notes on the kit - rather poor with vague placements, lack of detail and some of the worst instructions I've ever seen. The motor drive actually worked before fitting the side skirts which catch on the tracks. The decals are weird and immune to Decalfix refusing to soften and conform.

 

This is the motor drive in all its glory.

 

 

 

 

And the decals, tracks and motor hardware.

 

 

 

 

Thanks for looking,

Steve

Iam sure you will have hours of fun with battles on the carpet all you need now are a few figures and your imagination 

brings back memories when I was a kid in 1960s there was a company did spitfires and tanks go carts and cars they all came with motors and they were about 1/48 scale if I remember hours of fun happy days 🖒👏

Yes happy days, don't think I've ever grown up, still enjoy playing with the grandkids toys. So much more sophisticated and technological than when I was growing up. Tin plate and clockwork, such fun
