Kurt,

All Trumpeter kits are not moulded in the same type of plastic I can guarantee
you
"Tamiya Extra Thin Cement" doesn't wotk on their K1A1 kit. It probably works
(haven't tried yet) on their T-72 kit which is regular plastic not ABS.

See also "Trumpeter glue test" thread higher up in this forum.

Cheers,

Christophe
