Fantastic. Haven't seen mention of this kit anywhere. Very surprising to see a kit of this vehicle and still no PBV 302.

Hi all

Well I finished the build stage of the kit.
Well what can I say, the basic kit is fine, suspension need some care but ok, tracks are link and length and already curled for sprockets etc. fits liek a glove and hardly any filling i had four minor air bubbles.
I have not fitted the commander’s mg or the flare ammunition cases.
Once the suspension is done it’s quite easy to build.
Yes I know tracks wrong way around a bent bar but hey we all make mistakes especially since I did not have a plan.
Took just under two days to build including cleaning up which is not much.
hope you all like it Ossie

Hi!
Seems to be an excellent kit of a very interesting vehicle. Hobby Fan products are very expensive here in Germany. Could anyone recommend a distributor worldwide who delivers at a reasonable price and reliable?

Thank you very much!

Is it the photograph or is the barrel warped?

Always liked the look of that tank looks kind of futureistic.
