Introduction
I would like to thank
Cougar for supplying the review sample.
The Cougar Panzer EVO RGB is the most elaborate of the full-tower Panzer series, with the Panzer G in the lower-end, the Panzer Max in the middle, and the EVO RGB as the fully loaded variant. It really does look like a tank, which is what "Panzer" means in German. In this review, we take the Panzer EVO RGB for a joyride, fill it with some ammunition, and see if it is a straight shooter.

Packaging
The Cougar Panzer EVO RGB ships in a brown cardboard box which, unlike in most cases, is set to be stored flat. There is loads of information on the box, including the specifications and highlights on included features. Our sample took a bit of a beating during transport, but the chassis itself arrived just fine.
The chassis comes sandwiched inside two thick foam spacers, and a sturdy, black cloth bag keeps fingerprints and scratches away.
