Model-Miniature has new resin kits for the AuF1 and AMX-13/90mm available in 1:72. These are quite detailed, with hatches that can be posed open - the effect with the AuF1 is impressive!

Those kits look nice but are not accurate.
The Au-F1 should have the new track type as it represents the latest variant of the SPG.
The AMX-13 has the wrong chassis. No AMX 13/90 were built with the 2D chassis (4 return rollers).

You're right, I could have lived with some ill-placed or omitted rivets
But those mistakes are noticeable enough and there are very few options to fix them. MM have been made aware of this and hopefully they will issue modified kits.
