Thanks!

A great Korean war piece although I think a couple may have gotten in at the very end of WW2. IIRC Tamiya made one in 1/24th or 1/25th way back in the day (late 60s early 70s).

Thanks, that was a great review.

A single vehicle was tested in Europe in 1945 by the 991st Field Artillery Battalion, along with one T89 8" HMC, which would become the M43 8" Howitzer Motor Carriage.

H.P.

Are the ww2 decals in as well?

I actually had time to watch the "video build." I personally don't like this format. It is great that Andrew gives you tips and what to look out for during the build, but I don't think the built kit spinning in the foreground is any help at all. It would be much more helpful to see the sprues laid out, the decals, PE, etc.; what exactly is in the kit. Some actual in-process pics would be good too. How about showing painting/finishing options? It is a good overall effort, but needs some more substance of the actual kit and build to be of any real value.

Hi, thanks. Very helpful review. Hope we see more. Kip.
