Very nice, I don't know about the specifics but this conversion really looks the part Excellent move on including the antennae pieces.

Its not a conversion, its an all new resin kit include everything you see in the images along with multiple options, decals and crew figures.

Almost makes me wish I didn't give up on 1/48. The scale is convenient and most of the available plastic models are OK with enough AM help. It's just the lack of affordable good plastic infantry and crew figures (don't mention Tamiya!) that put me off.

Yes, figures bring life and scale to the model. There is still a void here, especially with plastic figures (Tamiya guys don't cut it). Resin figures have gradually been trickling in though which are better detailed then plastic at least.

I know what you mean about figures! We have included a couple of crew figures in the kit. I'll b posting some more pictures on the www.fighting48th.com website shortly showing all the options.
