Thanks!

Well done and thorough review. Now I wish I could buy one of this in Canada or North America. I have contacted Gecko about availability here in North America, and was not happy with the blunt response I received. I do know that a distributor here in Canada approached them, but was basically told where to go. Guess Gecko is not concerned about sales in North America.

Thanks!

I will send the one you have requested.

Great review Darren ! I was expecting this Gecko kit for a while -and the others they've announced also !-.

Do you have any feeling/previews how this kit stands against Bronco offer. Anyway, I did buy the Bronco kit (the updated version CB 35151) but I may "afford" a second one... the gecko just shows quite some flash and also heavy tree to support some parts... just a feeling from the pictures ???

Thanks for any input

The Bronco kit has the edge on sharpness of moulding, Gecko offer far more bang for you buck and has the edge on ease of assembly.

Many thanks Daren for your update... now I know I need both .

Bronco already on its way for the Balkans campaign (Jeffrey Plowman's book is of great inspiration for that -Camouflage & Markings Of Commonwealth And Greek Armor In The Balkans-) and a Gecko kit for a BEF version !

All the best

I should also add that the accuracy is superior on the Gecko model in some respects and the equal elsewhere.

Thanks again !

Hope their coming A9 kits and British MG team will be as appealing as this A10
