I’m seriously thinking about one. Panther G or Early Tiger I. But damn, that’s a huge chunk of change for the average middle class guy to blow on something like this.

That is awesome.

I've always wanted to get the SdKfz 7 or the SdKfz 222 but as you said that's a huge wad of cash to blow on a toy.

Big money for those.  But very cool.
I would have to settle for 1/16 scale

A DD form1 build on one of those would be very tempting.

Younger me would have loved to see a few of those converted and roaming the paintball field as well.

I have a Taigen RC 1/16 Tiger that’s got pretty much everything on it. Sound, smoke, gun recoil. It even shoots airsoft and is all metal except the top and sides of the body. Got it stripped down for detailing and weathering. There is a pretty decent aftermarket for 1/16 scale accessories nowadays, for both static and RC models. I have been working on static 1/16 Sturmgeschutz III for a while now. It’s far from finished. The Taigen Tiger is on the bottom next to one in 1/35.

I’ve looked online and not found any local RC tank battle clubs in SW Pa (Pittsburgh).   If there was one I would be jumping on getting a 1/16 scale tank.   Of course a Tiger MkVI is number one and I will probably get one regardless.  
I just have too many hobbies and not enough time right now for any of them.
