Purchased a Sherman and Tiger. The Tiger has proven (after maybe 8 hours of run time) to be a good machine. Our Sherman(s) have problems. The first Sherman arrived with a very wobbly rear wheel . . . track did not run smooth (could even hear the difference from one side to the next). Returned to the retailer . . . I paid the return shipping cost. The second Sherman still had a wobbly rear wheel but not as bad . . accepted it as it was a day or two before Christmas. After approx. 1-2 hours of running time, the barrel failed to elevate . . . the motor/drive case was not sufficiently screwed together. This was followed by an inability to trim the drive on one side of the tank due to a stress crack in the d-hub in the controller . . fixed with some glue but the d-hub for the other side cracked to the point to where glue can't fix it so we've resorted to using the Tiger controller (so no more one on one battles). Also have had two "bearings" fail (stress fractures) on the smaller wheels . . . .one behind the front drive wheel and one in front of the rear wheel. Lastly, one suspension spring has failed. The tank has max 8 hours of total running time, probably a lot less. Overall, a cool product but way too many issues.

Forces of Valor RC Battle Beam Tanks - Sherman

Excellent product! Just as described. Creates a quality experience. Bought 1 King Tiger (for me) and 3 Shermans (for my 3 Great-Nephews). Had one issue with one Sherman (Bad crystal connection on tank). Excellent customer service. Sent tank back and promtly received a new replacement. Only other issue was receiving two of the other Sherman tanks with the same crystal frequency (done during packaging prior to shipping). Customer service sent me a replacement crystal set immediately, which I easily changed myself). Overall a great experience. Remember, we are dealing with electronic devices, which can be damaged during shipment, etc. I anticipated issues with at least one tank. The boys enjoy their time with these. They learn fast (Ages 3,7,8). Yes, while the controller is a bit large for his hands, the 3 year old has mastered it. He won the 2nd round! The others won quickly too. I even practiced for a few weeks! #$%@^& kids today! :)

Tiger tank is Junk, DO NOT, wast your money. Out of the box it looked great. Within 5 minutes on carpet it threw a track....I was able to fix it, not sure how long it will last :) Then, it ran (both tracks) and DOES NOT respond to the remote AT ALL.....

Another WONDERFUL piece of trash from China :)
