That looks like a sweet little kit Kent, I can see why you had a hard time waiting to build it! The detail looks real impressive and I'm looking forward to your build

The main gun includes the breech and the coax 30 cal is a full gun as well. That's more detail than comes with the 1/35 scale Shermans. This looks like a great candidate for a father and sons build.

Im just hoping this series is popular, so they´ll upscale it to 1/35 and release the full set with indy links of course!

I just built this kit. I couldn't resist the Ocean Grey scheme. Currently glossed up for decals. Have not added the tracks yet.

Worst of all, I have a review of the DML SdKfz 222 kit in Braille as well that I am trying to finish so the parts still haven't come of the trees. Just give me the weekend though.
