Okay, as far as I know no one has come out with a 35th scale MCTAGS turret yet. Is that correct? Now I was doing some research on an M88A2 build and I noticed that the turret in the Legends set looks an awful lot like (minus 1 set of windows) an MCTAGS one. Is it, is it a different version or something? If it is not, how close is it - what can be changed to bring it close?

Lastly, does anyone have any hi-res pictures of the MCTAGS - all sides??

Thanks in advance folks.

Hey Henk,

That very same link is what got me started on my quest! I eventually found those very same pictures on here in Hi-Res, but wanted to see if anyone had closer, more detailed pictures.

Legend Productions turrets are GPK and O-GPK. Its are very different.

There are some details pictures of the MCTAGS, from tamiya magazine n°180 :

Alex thaks for the info. on the magazine - I found that info. already when I visited that very same sight -- problem is I am trying to avoid spending $12 (cost plus shipping) for a magazine article with small pictures - was hoping folks on here would have access to larger pics or be able to point me in the direction of pictures. I have found the ones mentioned in the previous links, those are good general pictures, but nothing close up.

As for the Legend offerings, I know about the GPK and OGPK - that is why I was asking about the one specifically in the M88A2 upgrade set - totally different beast then their other ones.

From the pictures of the Legend M88A2 update set that I have seen it seems that the turret is very different from the MCTAGS, only the front shield looks the same.

Different Turrets. MCATS is not the GPK or OGPK. If you are patient PSM will probably be squirting a MCATS out soon.
Outta here, Mike sends . . .

Good to hear Mike - who is PSM though? not heard of this company before, do they have anything out now or a web site?

Thanks,

Sean

These guys.

That's right.

The front panel is a bit different too and there is a base which does not exist on the MCTAGS turret.

Waiting for an artisanal TAGS turret !

any news when psm brings it out ???????

see, this is why I posted my question on here -- I knew you all would put me straight. Those turrets looked very close to my untrained eye - only looked like it was missig one set of windows and fix up the back portion to match. Ow well, will wait patiently for the PSM one to come out. Thanks for the link to those folks as well.
