Hi All,
HLJ has the above-mentioned kit at a great price. I just might have to order one. How great is this little kit?! That's a rhetorical question....It's a great time to be a modeler...with all of the interesting subjects being released.

I have heard good things about this kit - I belive Tamiya is releasing a plastic version so hence the 'blowout" price.

Ahhhhhhhh...I didn't know Tamiya was releasing a kit of this vehicle. Probably an upgrade of their 1/48 Austin Tilly ( I know...here's my sign...I'm Mr. Obvious). I'm looking forward to the Tamiya version then also. I wonder if it will have the cargo cover like the SKP kit? Anyway, as said before, this is a great time to be a modeler...and especially a modeler of Allied subjects. We'll see how the Tamiya kit matches up pricewise with the SKP kit.
