Hey Scott long time no see. Remember the good old days at Ft. Hood Texas. I too was a little disappointed with the Tamiya JS II in terms of the cast texture, lack of casting numbers on the turret and Tamiya still has those annoying injection marks on the underside of their fenders.

In terms of accurancy the main problem with the DML JS II series of vehicles has always been the depth of the hull which makes the return rollers sit too close to the bottom of fenders and results incorrect track clearance.
