Thanks!

I need to get me one of these sets... Oh, wait... I already have three!

Great review, thanks. Probably still best with an Academy kit unless you want to correct further errors on the Tamiya kits that aren't covered by this set.

Nice review, however I would have put the lack of hollow headlights as a minus, if they want to give headlights with moulded on lenses at least give another set with hollow recesses for those who would like to put proper lenses, I know that's a small point but annoying for me.

Cheers,

Come to think of it they could have done recessed headlights and supplied clear resin lenses.

the 1/35 m113 apc over 50 years of service and production.with several variants.in the model scale world stay in differents scales and cs vari. plastic and resin some

So there is no added armor for the front hull that should be there for the A3?

One must remember that this is a detailing set for M113 kits. It is not specific for the M113, M113A1, M113A2, or M113A3...the box text states..."For 1/35 M113s".

The box images and instructions show the details added to the Tamiya M113A2 kit as an example.

The parts are generic in nature. This in not a conversion or a correction set. It enhances existing details in existing kits whether it be Tamiya, Academy, or Italeri/Revell offerings.

The hollow/recessed headlights are a good idea for future sets and wouldn't be hard to master.
