Arse! I wanted one of those ages ago, but importing from the US was too costly.

It looks like it was left in the sun for a long time. I wanted one too as a Red Shadow tank if it is the same tank I saw a few years back they went for £20 in our Toymaster which I wasn't willing to pay.

I don't think battle tanks can get sunburn.

Hard to be sure but I don't think so. I'd expect the visible area beneath the back of the turret to look darker if so. I think it's just a crappy camera letting it down... that and all the dust!

Damn, I want one all over again now.

Yep that is definitely the one I saw, the thing is I saw it before I joined here and was only just getting back into buying Joe figures and at the time only wanted those figures that weren't readily available here.

Looks like a perfect shade of red ! I think the camera flash has spoiled the ebay pic.

all this would have needed was a change of stickers :(

I want one now too !!!

I can assure you that both the black and red Crimson Attack Tank blend in perfectly with your Red Shadows. :D

You can mix the two to create a perfect Red Shadow tank and a S.A.S. tank, but I don't want to f*ck up my vehicles.
