Great announcement. Chinese markings on the box but I hope they'll provides Decals for a good numbers of user countries other than them.

The degree of care and effort to be accurate is high in CAMs' kit. Take a look on the poster, the unique features of Chinese 6 Tonner are correctly represented.

To provide Decals for others user countries to apply to this kit, will increase the number of buyer. However it will also mean CAMs did wrong research. I don't think CAMs will stupid enough to do it.
