About Jim Starkweather (staff_Jim)
FROM: NEW HAMPSHIRE, UNITED STATES

I started building models in 1971 when I was 6. My first model was a 1/32 P-40 Warhawk. Revell I believe. From there I moved onto the standard cars, Apollo spacecraft, and other kid orientated kits. I don't know what got me started on Armor. I must have seen a Monogram tank kit one day and said "Mom...

Nice video review Jim. I am liking these more and more as the first-look, in-box view of a kit vs just pics and a quick written review. I cannot wait to dig into this kit.

Nice vid, thanks! Now I'm sure, I'll buy the 279 from an other manufacturer.

No I did not hang up my uniform on WoT. I blew out my video card, been waiting for my warranted replacement, and I have been building like a mad man on the T-80U kit and a special model project. How soon before you send the Panda kit? I want to make sure I get the T-80U to the priming stage before it arrives...

Nice video Jim, the tracks look like they will be a nightmare I will have to see what the other 2 kits look like before I pick up one of these beasts

As always, a great video Jim! Thanks for your effort doing these videos, they are one of the most helpful references before buying a kit About the turret and hull cast texture, I still think it is waaaay overdone. Too much flash in some parts also, and I anticipate the usual messy Panda instructiosn and parts fitting. After watching this video, I will go for the Amusing Hobby kit, with no doubts... Thanks again!!!
