I built this one when it came out.It is not a bad build,but the mouldings are not as crisp as todays.Possibly it would be better to try and mate the Mobelwagen chassis with the Brummbad top.That way you get the best PnIV chassis there is.

It's not up to today's quality standards of companies like Tamiya and Dragon, but it builds into a nice looking model with some care. Of course it would be even better with aftermarket track and PE, but it's still OK out of the box.

I've built this one and I have pics if you want to see it. It's a very nice build out of the box with little problems during building. If you want an accurate Brummbar I'm told it's better to look somewhere else. But if you just want a nice easy build then get it!

I would suggest looking around for the recently re-released DML Brummbar. It is much better and costs about the same. The Tamiya kit is one of their old ones with motorization holes, soft detail, and terrible vinyl tracks with detail on only one side.
