Looks pretty nice. Whats up w/the fuel cans on the left rear though? They should have 3 handles, not two.

The two on the right look as if they're missing (or they haven't added them) two handles....?

The ones on the right are water cans, never seen the two handled fuel cans?

One of the serious problems in planning against Canadian doctrine is that the Canadians do not read their manuals, nor do they feel any obligations to follow their doctrine.

The two on the right are correct, they are water cans, which have only one handle. The fuel cans on the left should have 3 handles. They are different in the stamped design on the side and the cap as well.

Great news about the mortar variant.
Looks like 2009 is going to be the year of the Stryker in China!

Another good looking model from Trumpeter. Agree with some of the comments above, too many coming out...not enough time (or funds!) HA!
Thanks for the look-see!
Current projects:
AFV 8.8cm Flak 18 (35088) (paint stage)
Academy Warrior MCV (OIF) (final touches...then paint)
Next up:
Revell A-6E Intruder (?)

It would seem that Trumpeter have adapted the tactics recommended by
George S Patton to read like this:
Find the customers and then just pile on the kits.
Need to clear a shelf for all those Strykers .....

Last night on eBay looking for a Centauro I found one from a seller in Korea. Checked his other items and he had this on offer also.... yet if you searched eBay for M1134 it did not show up. I meant to keep the link, but got distracted....
Anyway, it struck me that this could not be genuine or could it?
