I got my Club AFV Stryker 1126 kit in the mail yesterday"in only three days from spruebrothers" This is really an impressive kit and I will be looking foward to getting started on this one.It looks great in box and the reviews sound pretty good,but I didn't realize how big these vehicles were,it is almost as long as my Dragon M1A1 AIM !!! It should be fun.

But you should consider this: http://www.voyagermodel.com/productlist.asp?itemid=PEA095

The covers in the kit were replaced by the perforated ones soon.
AFV included them in their M1130.

You won't really need this for the MGS since they did include proper strut covers in the kit, as well as the valve covers shown in this PE kit. You can check out my review of the MGS in the REVIEW section.
