Thanks Darren.

The test shots of the kit make it look like one for the buy list.

Cheers

Yes, I am very bullish on this kit for a DAK Beutepanzer option. I could even see buying two kits, one Allied, one DAK capture.

That boxart is really strange in that it completely obscures the front of the vehicle giving the casual viewer no idea what the thing really looks like.

I agree ... its a pity really, as you want to see the front of the vehicle.

Maybe they wanted to show off the interior work of the kit!!! The front does not have much going on. The box side can show the front and side profiles

The link has some more Photos.

I wonder how it compares to SKP. It will probably cost more but I heard about some shape issues on the SKP one. Not that I would care much since Im not a rivet counter.
