Whew, I can tell you right now those PE tracks will be be an absolute bear to do!! I'd like to see the detail on both sides, but will have to wait until more comes out from ACE or someone else builds it.

I've done one set of braille-scale PE tracks and trust me, I would seriously hesitate to do it again.

Otherwise.....it looks pretty decent.

Finally!

It was about time that someone made the Panzer II in 1/72 scale.
But sadly I'm not to satisfied with ACE. I bought from them the Ardelt Waffentraeger in 1/72 scale.
It was a nightmare. I don't finished it jet, but I have the feeling I never will. The quality of the molding is so low, that I would have better luck, if I would carve it out of stone.
I really hope this model will be better.
Of course the best thing would be, if Dragon would make the German light tanks in 1/72.

The PE track seems a little uncomfortable.

Looking forward to this one although I will with for some reviews. It's interesting to see that one of the markings included is for a Slovak State army vehicle...
