I don't whether anyone has come across this yet but it looks pretty good. I just ordered some so I will let you how I get on with it.

looks wonderful. Here in the States you pay a pretty penny for ATAK, probably more than the kit itself. I have heard that the Cavalier set for either the AFV or the Tamiya late version will work equally as well with a minor bit of trimming. You can pick it up off of ebay for around $15

I have this Atak set, bought it from a local model show in Bolton. It looks very good indeed. I'll be putting a review of it up soon.

For anyone using Atak for the first time. Soak the resin sheet in warm water for 5 minutes. This will soften the resin and prevent cracking (or worse off,.... shattering) of the resin. Use 5 minute epoxy, as this will give you time to fiddle about.
