I seen there is allot of M1 Abrams stuff out there but not sure which one would look good. There is the real model and VLS and eduard. I have the Dragon M1A1HA Abrams. There is something called the BIG ED never heard of it. What do you think I should get. Or better what would you use.Money is not and issue it's the how accurate I can get it.
Happy Modeling

Big Ed is a collection of multiple Eduard photoetch sets in one package for one model.

Updating an Abrams you say? There are lots of goodies out there. The Eduard Big Ed set is pretty good as a start. AFV Club makes T-158 tracks, Echelon makes very good decals for it. Both Real Model and Legend make some very good stowage sets with lots of extra goodies like corrected drive sprocketts, tow bars etc. Several companies make metal barrels. I used one from Modelpoint for mine. Futher on you could have a look at MR Models stuff. There you can get tow wires, antenna bases etc.
