Hi,
I built one recently and enjoyed it. I found it only a little more
fiddly than the Tamiya Quad. Fit is generally pretty good but it's a kit
that has been around for a while (the molds are ex Peerless Max) and
needs a little TLC in the building process.
As for dioramas, I built mine as a FAT from 2nd Canadian Infantry
Division in 1944. I used some decals from the Tamiya Quad and the Tamiya
Universal Carrier to get the right divisional and regimental
combination.
In Canadian service the Type 13 cabs (Italeri) went mostly to North-West
Eueope while the Type 12 cabs (Tamiya) went to Italy. That's a very
broad overview but generally applies.
Cheers
Bill Inglee
