The kink in the fenders would be handy what else was wrong with it.

Oh well Dragon will up the price by 30 percent at least it will be good for them.

Cheers Ben.

Interesting review I wonder how much will be corrected over the original issue that I built a few months back.

At the right price I may end up with two being such a small model space isn't really an issue.

Cheers Ben.

I built it and am glad to see an updated version - very glad not to see DS tracks.

If they address any shortcomings -fine- but I'm tired of always buying the "old" version of one of their kits. The new price will also undoubtedly be updated.

Reading the linked review on PMMS and looking at the CAD I surmise that they fixed the fitting of the front glacis. From the description they might have added some bits to the interior like driver's pedals? I would expect some finessing but no major changes. And the kit will cost nearly almost as much as three times the Italeri piece of junk.
