It's the best one of many options. It builds nicely, and the only minor fix I remember if building strictly OOB is filling in the sunken areas on the sponson stowage boxes.

This is a great kit. The old Esci M60 series is the best out there. I was happy to see them reissued by Italeri and Revell. I guess it is a matter of opinion, but I thought the tracks were quite good on it and had no issues with mine. I used their M60A3 hull as a base for my M60A2 build. You can check it out here. I have built the IDF M60 Blazer too.
