Thanks!

Hi, Stefan.
I think your rating will be lower when tryng to fit the tracks, they simply don't fit the sprockets. I´m very unpleased with the kit, good for the 80's, but not for today.

Hi Javier

Thanks for your comments. I haven't gotten to the tracks yet but I will do a blog of the build as soon as I can get some pictures. I'll detail any other problems there.

Cheers
Stef

Good review, Stefan!

I, too, am skeptical when it comes to Italeri kits. My LVT-4 has the worst rubber band tracks I've ever encountered (no glue will work on them, not CA, not plastic cement, you MUST use a soldering iron). The Horch staff car was better, since there were no tracks to deal with, and I replaced the wheels with resin ones for accuracy.

Here's the link to my build log:
