The Gun Carrier is so tempting, but would have to convince the minister of finance big time for that one.

Hi Mike, With all I have yet to build and the release of yet more Churchill variants it may be some time before I get around to any of these. Nice though they look. Cheers Al

Hi, Those kits are not new, the gun carrier and its ammo carrier version were released at least 10 years ago, I got the ammo carrier in my stash. As for the others, a quick google search reveal a 2012 release date. http://wwimodeller.co.nz/land-war-modelling-what-you-can-get-in-135-part-5-panzershop/ To put "NEW" on the photos is rather misleading. Panzershop should mention a re-release or "available again" IMVHO. Cheers, Christophe

Hi Christophe, I had seen the gun and load carrier before but until you provided the link I had forgotten I'd also seen the Mk C's. What's the kit like BTW? It's possible with the release of the new Mk IV's something else will come along in plastic. Cheers Al

The ammo carrier is allright. A French modeller who built the gun carrier version reported of fit problems with the hull bottom, some resin parts have to be modified or replaced with plasticard, but nothing too difficult for someone who builds resin kits, especially if you do some basic dryfitting before assembly to spot potential problems. Cheers, Christophe
