Hi All , I was lucky enough to buy the two KV kits at the War and Peace show last week. I built them up over the 5 days in the model tent as Out of the Box kits . I had one one display and the other under construction. A modeller made the following comment , "Have you primed it all ready." . I told him no and two hours later yet an other modeller made the same comment; it took ages to convince him that it was not primed and was infact straight out of the box. Apart from a few seam lines and extrator pin marks it was a dream to put together . Cheers ian

I know Ian,

I have the KV-1 simplyfied turret kit, and I was happily surprised when I opened the box!!
This is why I puit these kits as runners-up for model of the year, in an other thread...
Trumpeter is doing good work lately!

Greetz, John.
