Personally, I think Dragon's Abrams are the best of the lot. They have great surface details. They can be a little hard to put together though. Their instructions are nototiusly cluttered and hard to follow too. They are not recommended for beginners. If you want a good model, give them a try and go slow. It will turn out great.

Hi Calvin, I'm building the Dragon M1A2 SEP right now. It's a great kit, but as Gino said be really careful assembling the engine deck and rear panels, they'll fit but getting them lined up and square can take a little TLC. Other than that and of course the over complicated instructions it's a beautiful kit with great little details.

3535 (M1A1 AIM) and 3536 (M1A2 SEP) are the new tooling kits and are excellent.

I've noticed that also. I'm convinced he's not a real person who takes breaks for eating & sleeping. I reckon "he" is a group of individuals using the one sign-on. The real clue is in his sig: Field Artillery --- The KING of BATTLE!!! Who could ever get excited about artillery? And every one knows CAS rocks! Just kidding Gino
