Very nice purchase though guys. Does the flail rotate and do the pistons work?

Scott, just flip the tank over, pop a couple of AA batteries in, and she spins round at approx 1200rpm.

Nah, the flail-ly thing is fixed, as are the pistons. I think it would prove far too fragile otherwise.

I believe this was discussed by the Figarti 'powers that be' and it was decided against due to the fact that when in use in it's mine thrashing mode, the hatches would all be closed up due to the impending explosions.

Spot on Wraith! I can verify that bit of accurate information. Team Figarti said just that at the West Coaster Show. What a beautiful scale historical reproduction!

Enjoy,

Also it is nice to know that he gave you a deal on a crab not given you the crabs!

I thought the nurse at the clinic looked a bit surprised when she was searching through the flails

I've pre-ordered one from Treefrog. Looks like an outstanding tank and I like that it comes with no figures.

My Crab arrived today. It is without question the best armored vehicle I have come across in this hobby to date. I will send some photos to Brad with a polite request that he post them on this thread later this evening.

I sent Brad 5 photos of the Sherman Crab on my LCT D-Day+1 Diorama with a polite request that he post them on this thread.

BSP's D-Day +1 will be out in about a month, and we will be gunning for you. Take your best shot. The Crab will also be featured in another Scene, which we researched and should be very unique.....Alex

Most impressive. I would love to see Figarti produce a XXX Corps Sherman.
