Sounds great Mike, lucky you. I've been waiting to get one, where did you get yours from and what can we expect to pay for it. Thanks for the heads up.

I've had one on order at Great Models since they were first announced. Looks like they don't have them in yet though. I might stop by the LHS tomorrow to see if they have them yet.

I was just in the brick and mortar internet hobbies and saw the kit first hand. It looks great and all but I'm waiting for AFV's kit. If you want one, IH has about a box left about 40 kits, and a great price.

So Mike, have you had a chance to dig into the kit yet? If so, what's your first impression?

My honest opinion is that is a decent kit, however way over priced, it would have been a great kit for 25.00, there is no interior, some flash and the plastic seemed dirty, I still think its a good kit but wait for the AFV kit to come out,

Hi guys,
I didn´t get mine yet, but I hope it happens soon!
But now, resin and photoetch guys, please, make an interior and external armor!!! Please!!!
A Stryker without these are a half-Stryker.
Bye,

just got mine in today..really looks like a cool model. Iafter seeing it on Future Weapons I had to get one. Hopefully some AM companies will kick out some detail sets though. I know the kit can use it.

has anyone heard any news about anyone making an aftermarket set for the armor skirts that you see on the OIF vehicles?
I'm assuming its going to be a very complex and difficult to make PE set but maybe someone out there will be able to make a nice clean one in styrene with slide molding. I'm hoping! I can't imagine the screaming I will be doing trying to make a PE set!!
