Niko Model's set is 88 euros.

I have to say the Niko resin set looks very nice and instructions are first rate. The tail that is shown on some pics is sold separately, I have one.

Didn't realize that any main-stream model companies offered a Char 2C; going to have to look into this one soon. The railway bogies are a cool idea though I'm still working up the nerve to start my Trumpeter Karl 040/041 with railway transporter...

I hope the Niko kit actually will fit the Meng FCM2C. The Azimut version did not link up at all with the kit and required much reworking for a passable result.

Does anyone know what was the attachment sequence like in reality?

Just a few pics of the 1:1 one : http://www.maquetland.com/article-phototheque/3159-fcm-2-c-boogies-transport-saumur H.P.

Thanks Deux Amis, good to know that, I once almost bought the azimut kit. This is specifically developed for the Meng TS009 (it says on the website at least :-) ) and NIKO is very nice quality (although 94 euro incl. shipping is quite a lot :-(.

I guess the pics posted in this thread should help. Heavy duty jacks and timbers were used to raise the tank in order to connect it to the bogies.. H.P.
