I see you have a James Bond Goldeneye T-55.
I love those tanks.
I have a number of them.
If I need a Russian looking tank, I use one.
They really look cool.

It's a BS-3.  And I was thinking about using it as a stand-in artillery piece, instead of as an AT gun, as well... 

When I go there next (particularly if I buy some), I'll post pics...
