| Subject: | Old kits - Tamiya SdKfz 232 |  |
| Date: | May 13, 2006 |
| From: | Mike Bedard | |
Steve C. brought up an interesting topic. What about the old kits (even the 'old' kits from 2005). Paul suggested discussion on older kits. They are both excellent ideas.
So here's my stab at generating discussion about older kits.
I remember (dating myself) when Tamiya released their Sd.Kfz 232 eight wheeled armored car back in the early seventies. I thought it was a cool vehicle and a very good kit. I started one about 15 years ago and have worked off and on on it since. Well for discussion:
1) What do you believe are the high points of the kit?
2) What do you believe are the kit's short comings?
3) Do you or have you used after market accessories for the kit?
4) Is the vehicle worth redoing in a 21st century way and would you by a newer kit of the Sd. Kfz 232?
