Hi
Well, the title says it all really. 
I need some help regarding what´s in DML´s 1/35 Sherman Vc Firefly kit ( all em parts), the decals and where to get a hold of the instruction manual for the kit.
I´ve made some quick searches but since i'm not all to familiar whit the site i haven't managed to find any reviews of it on the site.
And last but not least...are there any particularly good Firefly reference site(s) on the net for the Canadian Firefly?
Thanks in advance guys

The Dragon Firefly kits have been improved in an evolutionary style--some errors in the original kits were due to its reliance on Italeri M4A1 suspension parts, now replaced, and a poorly shaped turret and lower hull, now improved. The only reviews I've seen online are for the earlier versions of this kit. The current incarnation is the third, and it fixes most of the shortcomings of the previous kits. The turret opening is now lower, so the gun mount doesn't sit high as it did before, and the length of the lower hull has been corrected. The suspension is now the correct 1942-43 version. The kits do not have the new soft DS plastic band tracks seen in the newest M4A2 kits. Instead, it has rather aggravating individual link tracks with separate end connectors, and will require some kind of assembly jig, or at least a straightedge to complete. Zaloga's Osprey book on modeling M4 75mm Shermans has a how-to technique.
If money is no object, the new Tasca kit is an amazing piece of engineering, and has soft plastic tracks.
