Well, it shouldn't be that hard to "work on" combining two pre-existing kits into one, right?

Looks like they need to sort out the box top art, for one thing...

Still hoping for a 178B version for my Indochina armor. Wayne

Wonder how this kit compares with the older Dragon offerings. A comparison build would be interesting.

I built one and found it to be a relatively trouble-free build. Mine was a Revell rebox.

The Dragon version was a rebox of the Al-By kit from France from 25 years ago, which was very poorly tooled. Fit was generally lousy, needing lots of filler putty and filing.

The ICM kit has interior parts, and all the reviews say it builds easily (I gave up on the Al-By kit halfway through, despite its high cost).

Thanks Gerald, now I'm doubly-glad that I didn't pick one up when it was offered to me, though the rail-adapted version was interesting...(fight the temptation...must fight...)

ICM has a very good rail version. Another member was doing a build of it not too long ago.
