Hey everyone,

I recently purchased an Acadmey Merkava IV and am looking to "busy up" the turret, and the best way I know how would be to add Trophy System components to it.

However the only resin trophy kit out there is designed for the hobby boss kit. Does anyone here know if there'll be any fit issues with it on the academy kit?

Thanks!

I don't know about fit issues, but based on info from IDF fans, Black Dog did not do a very accurate job on the system.

Oh wow I neve knew of any accuracy issues. That's a bummer. Guess I'll have to hit the reference pictures again.
