I may have asked this before but I can't find the post, so I'll ask again and this seems like a good place to ask...
what are peoples impressions of the Gunze Sangyo M60A1? there's one at my local hobbyshop, but it ain't cheap. would I be better off with the Tamiya kit?
thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,
yep, either this or the ACADEMY offering, GUNZE has some metal parts, but not too much detail. Go for the ACADEMY kit plus the AFV Club tracks, loads of gear in there, too ...

Hiya,
thought I'd let you know what I'm doing, here's the partly converted turret :
nice casting, but the bustle was pretty much unuseable so I redid it :_ | and may cover it mostly with the markings and gear again Andreas

Several of us have been updating our progress under the Campaign Command Central forum - there is a thread called "OBG - The Official Thread" or something like that. Check it out.
