Saul ,
I got mine on wednesday its a good kit looking at the sprues and it was also good to see they included early and late tracks . One thing i did notice is that in the instructions there is no mention of being able to raise/lower the suspension as depicted in the photos on the side of the box . I look forward to your progress .

Cheers Plushy

Saul,
The photos are not encouraging at all.. so many thick connectors and awkward looking details.. I do not think it is as i was hoping it is..

Thanks for the photo's Saul.
I will probable get one as long as the price isn't crazy.
The tracks look awful:( but as its Pz IV track there are lots of alternatives available. I will also get the chance to use my spare set of Tamiya Pz IV drive wheels.
I hope trumpeter hire some good mold makers, maybe those guys from Skybow are still looking for a job

Lots of fun with your build;)
