The Tank Museum were very kind in reaching out to me for my part in this video and I appreciated the opportunity to dispel some of the misinformation, inaccurate comments and meming on why the tank looks the way it does. To say it is a failure is not correct - it exceeded the criteria it had to be built to.

@@lucaswatson1913 Actually, I think you can make a case that it was better than the Churchill - or at least the early versions.

Next they're all standing in a line in the shop, They give a knowing look to one another and turn thier bottles upside down pouring it on the floor, Cut to them reaching in the back of a land rover for yet more bottles again and again. One of them throws an empty bottle aside, The camera follows to show it landing on a mounting pile of empty bottles, Then a face shot of Fred scrubbing the floor with a broom to evenly coat it. Mike guides in the CRARRV recovery vehicle driven by Geoff, Fred pats Tim on the back and says "I think this might just work"... Tim replies "It has to work". The final moment, Geoff driving the CRARRV, Tim in front of TOG, Mike at the back both checking for wall clearance and Fred stood like ceaser on top of the CRARRV directing. A few tense moments go by as the TOG slides slowly sideways inch by inch, Eventually the noise stops and all breathe a sigh of relief as the camera moves up to show the TOG in its place.

I could imagine a good lighthearted World War II movie about the TOG tank. Maybe the old gang could’ve been frustrated by the rejection of their design and through rich and powerful contacts get a few made in the good old USA, get some volunteer crews from the empire and allies with some great accents and join the fight in north Africa. Of course it would all have to be computer generated along with some really good engine sounds, maybe be a bit of extra smoke, maybe exaggerate power of the gun and maybe also include some terrible mechanical sounds such as the sound of un lubricated metal on metal when the turret rotates along with some dammed fine British terminology of the day. I suppose there could be some embarrassing scenes in the beginning before they learn how to use them but they could save the day in the end. It doesn’t have to be too believable for people who know about tanks.

I laughed when I saw them moving the TOG sideways in a pool of soapy water. Long ago in the shop I worked at, we had a Caterpillar D-8 sitting in a bay we needed for something else. Well, we had removed the injectors and sent them out for cleaning, so we tried to push it sideways using a D-4. It struggled and the concrete floor started to be gouged. So my boss thought, "hey, lets throw some floor soap under it". So we did and we pushed it again with the D-4 and it slid very nicely. It worked and it was a bonus that the bay also had the cleanest floor in the shop!

I would love to one day see the TOG come back to life at a tank fest.

Have you ever been to the pound to adopt a stray dog? TOG is like the silly, dopey, maybe wierd or misshapen dog in the far cage that you just fall in love with and end up taking home.

So the TOG II is WoT's Urbanmech. Awesome!

I think you should partner with a good model manufacturer to create TOG II kits in various popular scales. It's bound to be a huge commercial hit.

So when will The Tank Museum shop get a COBI brick kit of the TOG2?? I have a couple kids who keep asking for it! They both adore playing as the TOG2 in WoT.

I belive the TOG II was the first tank introduced into World of Tanks for Britain as a separate nation. It's when I got it. (Though I don't play World of Tanks anymore, changing game meta etc.)

It's weird, because I was letting an ad for the game drift by, until I could hit the 'skip ad' button (I have zero interest in games of any kind), and I saw what I thought was the TOG II, and thought: "It couldn't be. It's far too obscure to be in a game." How wrong I was! I've always liked it - there is something very pleasing about it's shape and dimensions - it would be quite easy to make a model of one from LEGO, for instance. I do wonder what Messrs. Tritton, Ricardo, et al., would have thought of their failed project now being seen as very cool - so cool it has become something of a pop culture icon? Oh, and did it, at some point, have the hull gun from a French Char B2 (a guilty pleasure tank of mine) mounted on it, or is that me seeing things?

It has been confirmed that the TOG has the 84mm 20(?) Pounder. I hope they actaully implement it in the game

Biggest shock is that Amusing, Meng, nor Takom have made a 1/35 scale TOG kit yet.

The museum loves the TOG so much they store old chairs, tables, and other broken crap at the back of it and relegate it to a corner that has almost no details on the vehicle and has certainly never been found by the cleaners.

I have one WoT because it's such a magnificently absurd machine. I can't help but crack a smile anytime one shows up in the battlefield and other players start cracking jokes about the Battleship that got lost on the way to World of Warships.
