Re: 1:16 & 1:18 Sherman Hedgerow cutters

Re: 1:16 & 1:18 Sherman Hedgerow cutters

They sell the hull/deck for $116.99 and the canopy for $19.94. Why not the whole boat with all the guns, tires and other acc. without the motors etc. for $150.00? I'd be in for that. Bob

Hi Matt; Received the rear shields and side racks today. Looking good. Going to do the rear shields on my RVN APC first then the racks on the modern one. Should go well with the upgraded Hummer. Thanks. Bob

It seems to me that the antenna is attached to the little nubs on top of the APC at least the 'Nam version. I made a very realistic antenna out of a piece of stiff wire and a very tiny spring.
