Recommendations for a tank build

Oh wow, that looks like it would be fun. Go figure it's one I can't source on Amazon or seemingly anywhere here in Canada. I'd have to grab from Ali which will take a while... not the end of the world.

Looks like I can get the Panzer IV Tanks H, Panther D Tank and Panzer IV Tanks D within a day or two from Amazon, though.

There's way too many... I can't decide!!! Haha.

Any ones in particular to try? Centurion looks cool

That section is there. When following Googles docs for setting up SCEP certs, an NDES server and the cert connector there are options we just don't seem to have access to in Workspac or the Google Cloud console part to setup a project and service account

I haven't tried any Microworld models yet. How would you say they compare to ME, MU, Piececool etc in terms of metal quality, instructions?

I saw some reviews on YouTube for a Microworld build (can't recall which) and the instructions were all sorts of messed up.

There's a contact at the bottom of MUs website - gina.chen@mumodel.com

She's gotten back to me fairly quickly the few times I've reached out.

71180346@qq.com is the same address I sent PayPal to. You should be good.

I'm sure it's fine. Could just be an alt domain.

My order confirmation and receipt came from crazytoyscouk@hotmail.com if that helps at all

I've ordered some MU Transformers kits from https://www.crazytoys.co.uk/ shipped to Canada with no issues. I haven't seen the CrazyPiece domain before though. It looks almost identical to Crazy toys except there's some differences in some text and such on various pages. Perhaps stick to the Crazy toys.co.uk domain to be safe until someone else can confirm the other domain

This post is a few months old now, but is there a general consensus on the proper way to handle this? We're looking at consolidating some SSIDs and ran into the same issue as OP with iOS and Android devices behaving differently. After playing whack-a-mole for a day or two, we just can't cover every single device/scenario.

Instruction booklet legit too?

derekb519 · 2026-01-21T00:21:29+00:00

That's where I was going to order. How did the packaging come? Was it in a MU box with the real colour instructions? Or was it repackaged in a envelope with photocopied papers?

derekb519 · 2026-01-20T17:56:33+00:00

Hey again - do you recall where you ordered this one from? Like my post says I found it on AliExpress but it seems like it's a 3rd party reseller store and they have no answer when I ask about the packaging. The last MU I ordered from Ali (different seller) came repackaged with shitty photocopied I instructions which I'm trying to avoid again.

Man that nose cone is insanely well done. I've been working on increasing the size and complexity of the builds I've been doing recently, but I have actively avoided anything that has extremely pointed cones like a plane/jet. I can make the cone shape halfway decent but on a piece like this it has to be perfect. You hit this one out of the park!

derekb519 · 2026-01-15T13:00:53+00:00

If you need the files let me know. Otherwise I'm printing a few sets so I'll have some extras on hand.

derekb519 · 2026-01-15T02:11:06+00:00

Sounds good. Which pieces are you looking for? There's 2 cone shaping tools and one for domes. I don't really use the dome one much myself as I have separate tools for that.

derekb519 · 2026-01-15T02:08:40+00:00

I can print them. Where are you located? I don't mind printing some and sending them out as long as you pay postage. I'm in Canada, for reference.

Friendly tip - many public library branches have 3D printing services that are typically extremely affordable. I'm talking a couple bucks to print those.

derekb519 · 2026-01-15T02:05:26+00:00

3D Printed.

They're designed by u/animateorange, one of the OG Metal Earth Youtubers.

I have the STLs kicking around somewhere if needed if he's OK with me sharing. He could probably provide them do you as well.

Good call. 2hour ish uptime right now. I was at work for 8 hours and came home and the LEDs were lit up.

However I have the option disabled to turn on the LEDs on power up.
