If I can get the time for this Campaign, I'll be looking into building that very same kit!

I'm not a copycat, I swear

Either am I...

But just to be different I'm also going to build an Sd.Kfz.7 to tow it around..., along with as much aftermarket stuff as I can lay my hands on between now and the start date

Subject sounds GREAT - Timing looks OK - anything which I procrastinate on and not have to get anxious about until, say, JULY or AUG 2013 (proviso those Mayans goofed up) has my vote!

I might have one of those new Bronco Flak 41 L/71 kits soon, and this could be my foray into actually building one of these big gun kits! (I've never done any stand-alone gun larger then a Flak 38 2cm pop-gun to this point...!) I do have some King Tigers, a waffentrager or 2, and a Nashorn - all 88 carriers - lurking in the stash, so... I have choices!

I'll go sign on.

Paul, that's a fun little kit, but the interior bits sure slowed me down..
The old AFV modeler magazine Superking build are a great reference, and I think they are available as PDF downloads as well.

Going to crack the plastic on my Schutnor Pak43 as soon as we are good to go
