Hi

I just received my DML Tiger I, the kit is really impressive and contains plenty of PE and preformed brass including the mesh grilles for the engine deck.

A few quick points:

* the kit contains two rear hull plates as well as two roofs and two cupolas, two muzzle breaks etc to make either a Late or Final version and thus is quite flexible in how it can be made.

* the interior parts for the fan and air ducts under the engine deck are well done and have depth. The kit is begging for an aftermarket engine block.

* the links for the turret and hull SPARE tracks do not have injection marks on the faces and have separate parts for the open guide horns.
the commander figure has been designed to reduce the number of seam marks by having the torso made from two parts.

A full review will come later this week. In summary an impressive kit that seems to be well worth the wait.

Cheers

Neville
