Hey Voyager Model........ What a great looking set, but why not come out with T55 Engine deck sets with the accurate set ups for Polish/ Russian or Czech tanks???? I know youd sell them

Chris

Probably they had designed the set before they knew about the latest Tamiya release, so they changed the name to their product

Not to be too picky, but according to the captions this is three sets together if you want to make whats in the picture. Looks like Voyager are up to their usual shennanigans regarding unclear product release pictures

Any indication what is included in each of the three sets Kevin?

Thats where I'm confused Rob, because don't voyager usually do the fender's as a seperate set?

I suspect those that have commented that this was designed before the tamiya announcement are correct. I really can't see any advantage in detail conferred by etched armour blocks at all

However, depending on how the sets break down there could be a good mix of Tamiya parts and Voyager without havng to buy all the sets

As for the weld seams, I guess it would be much easier to add these to the tamiya plastic parts than to mess around with the resin and etch in the voyager set

I'm sure it will all sell just fine to those that think just throwing all the etch you can get at a kit will atomatically lead to improvement. Don't get me wrong, it really can improve a kit, but as you say Rob, you have to give it the critical eye to see if its right and is an improvement before buying
