I'm still hesitating between making them British or Japanese.

I'm using the AT-43 Red Blok ones for Russian and the Mak Mélusines for Americans.

Go for Japanese, since I haven't seen anyone else do their army. Then you could also use them for SF manga-style games - but you would need to find some schoolgirl-style pilots  lol

I just received three HAFS Gladiators from HLJ today. I already have SAFS converted and painted as German and the intention was that, since the Gladiators have the same styling, these were to form a core force for my Germans. However, now that I see one in my hand I think it would look great walking through East Asian boonies. I may therefore paint one (or more) up as Japanese.

I got a gladiator through too. now...pointy feet or round retro looking feet? May add a turret to mine, looking for an appropriate tank scale as we speak.

Anyway I digress.

Everyone who expressed an interest has been pm'd any left I'll let you know.

I like the round feet. The pointy ones look impractical to me. The entire weight of the vehicle would be on those four tiny points, they'd jab right into the ground and get stuck.  Er... yeah, I know, we are talking about an imaginary four legged crab tank here.  But I still like the pad feet better than the points.   ;)
