With the advent of the "new" Dragon Firefly, I'd like to know how the Eduard Firefly kit is. Does anyone know where an find some pictures of it. All the Eduard site has is a picture of the sheets. Thanks guys! (++)

Considering that the kit will likely include PE head and taillight guards, as well as antenna base (Older issues of the Firefly VC and IC included a small PE fret.), the value of adding another PE set is questionable.
I looked at the Eduard instruction sheets and from what I can see, most of the stuff the Eduard set either (A) doesn't need to be replaced, (B) is easily scratchbuilt or (C) fixes or replaces stuff that is usually missing from British Shermans.
Personally, I'd get the kit first and check it out before spending the money on a PE set.
