Hi Christophe,
It was the Italeri. I am doing an article for MMiR. I have not seen the MR
Models conversion but guess it might be better. The Italeri kit inherits the
problems from the Hummer kit but it is buildable. They have included an
extra spruce for the Avenger conversion. From what I have gathered on the
Avenger the Italeri kit is a very early version used in Desert Storm. It
actually matches photos from the Concord book on U.S. Military Wheeled
Vehicles. This is especially obvious on the rear of the turret where it has
an extra box and no ladder. The inside of the turret is also very basic just
some boxes no dials are anything like that. Overall very easy build.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Jim |
