Headache time...
First up the reason I'm doing this subject is the Type-59 is my fave tank out of World of Tanks (and top of tanks of all time) and I use a mod that makes it a D variant (the ERA and BAR add on). While I know this kit is lacking but its the only one their is BUT I wanted to do justice to the subject so I had plans to add in extras and redo stuff, then last night two things happened...
1st - surfing in general I happened across Legends conversion set for Tamiyas T-55a to Type 59 with BAR (plus voyagers T-55 PE sets)
2nd - earlier that day SWMBO authorised some extra dollars for Christmas, enough to cover the above sets and a Tamiya T-55A. Enough to bring together the perfect Type-59 (plus a Frankenstein kit of a T-54/55/Type 59 afterwards).
The headache? I was hoping to put that money towards Trumpeters new T-80BV that they announced to release this month (plus another couple of kits on my wish list) but if as it goes unless its released in the next couple of days their is only a small chance it would get here for Christmas. Too much indecision and temptation.
TLDR?
Build is on minor hold until I figure out if I'm restarting using Tamiyas T-55, Legend Conversion kit, Trumpeters kit for some donor parts (ERA, Barrel etc) and maybe some Voyager PE.
