I just got the PE set from from Aber for the Tristar Panzer 1 A.
WOW, once again Aber has amazed me. For such a small model they sure pack in alot of stuff. One strange thing though, Aber includes exhaust shrouds but the Tristar kit comes with them, weird . Now the only problem is that I don't have a Tristar Panzer 1 A kit.
I ordered it 3 weeks ago but unfortunately the site from which I ordered it failed to inform me that they were out of stock and would not be restocked until December
Oh well,
my point is that the Aber set is great.

What part number is the Aber set? Does it expilicity say that it is for the Tri-Star kit? The reason that I ask is that I wasn't aware that they had released a set for the Tri-Star Panzer I.

Never mind I answered my own question by going to AirConnection. So did you buy set 35118? What about set 35119 (fenders)? Do you plan on using those as well?

No, I don't plan to buy the fenders as I have heard that the kit fenders are quite good.
There is a fair amount of hatch and vision port details included in the Aber PE set so I will either paint the figures (which I rarely do) or wait for an interior kit.
