I have just about finished the kit and seem to have a bunch of extra parts left on sprues B (1,2,19,20,59,60) and A (7,8,9,10,13,25,26,27,30) Some look like tools or storage bins, one looks like an exhaust tube but I have no idea what the rest are. Anyone know ?

Hi vicbc,
I've not assembled this model but you may want to check the instruction sheet. Sometimes not all parts are used due to different versions or what have you. It may also have a place on the instructions where it will tell you whether or not all the parts will be used.
Hope this helps and hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Regards,
Joe

Howdy,

(is Rob quick and cool or what?)

I'm interested in the USMC fording gear if you're not going to use it.
