That looks lovely. One thing, couldn't they have thrrown in some handles and brackets for the darned cut-outs in the turret tops?

Would I be correct in thinking that this set is for the Trumpeter Chally 2 with Enhanced Armour ???? Would seriously have to order one of these up if so.....

Nice to see. Although the old PE-set for the Tamiya Challenger 2 was very good in my opinion, the new one is definitely more beautiful.
The CIP-frames (how the F**K can i bend those parts so the CIPS look good in the end?!) look more scale thickness than the old ones. Also the front mudguards look correct now. And the fuel drum tension belts are structured now. I think it would be better to make them self out of cloth anyway.
What makes me really looking forward to get thus set is that other parts like the tool boxes, the rear mudguards, rear light frames, the external phone/toolbox and other small parts like bolts and hooks have been considered.

Looks great but there is one glaring mistake there. The antenna mounts are wrong, it seem you combined the new style with the old style. Oh well! Not to hard to fix if you know what the correct one looks like.
