Hi Tim... As Mike says this is not a bad kit at all but Tamiya did make a few mistakes...You can tell they tried to use as much from the earlier stug kit and have used the later style lifting hooks on the engine compartment and front of the hull...they also missed a panel line on the engine deck that needs to be scribed in...nothing too hard to fix..Tracks are the rubber band type and are hard to make look right on this type of suspension....I'm going to finish mine as an early N using the Tiger Model Design conversion kit ...
