My LVTH6A1 arrived from Hobby Easy - very quickly too. This leaves (provides?) me with a "spare" LVTP5A1. An LVTP5A1 for which I purchased a resin conversion for the LVTH6.
After some serious consideration as "spare" is an inappropriate term for an Amphibious Monster stash I've decided to stick to the plan with a How-6 conversion.
The new LVTH6A1 kit provides several marking options, one of which is a Phil-Mar How-6 in urban camo. The conversion kit will not receive the PE, Spade Ace tracks, resin interior or any of the other AM bits I've squirrelled away for a detailed build. This also allows me to use the "newer" style roadwheels allowing me to save pennies for several more months for the 3D-printed older style wheels for my other P5 and H6 kits.

I look forward to seeing your thoughts and build of the kit.

Hi Daniel,
I think this thread would receive more attention and interest if it was in the Armor/AFV forum.
Let me know if you want me to move it.
Cheers / Robin

Robin,

He already created a new thread,

OK!
Thanks for the heads up.
I'll be following that other thread
This one can stay here as a "road sign" to guide others in the right direction
If posts are in the "correct" (for a given value of correct) forum it makes it easier for others to discover it.
It can get lonely trying to get responses/feedback when posting in the "desert" ....
Cheers / Robin
