| Well, it fits together pretty well. It looks pretty good. I do not know the subject matter well enough to really tell how accurate it is. A couple of things, the bolt heads are all just round blobs. I supposed on something this early a lot of rivets could have been used, but there is not one hex head on this thing. Another thing is the holes for the axels into the hull, and the axels into the wheels all are too small and need to be reamed out. Not a big deal, but takes time. The tracks fit together well and look fairly nice, except they do not have the open guide horn and they do have one small ejector mark. It comes with one figue, I am used to the old Tamiya ones from the 70s so the molding on this is much nicer. The instructions are simple yet clear. All in all I like the kit and would do another if I had the chance, especially if I could pick it up cheap like I did this one. |
