That open casemate screams for detailed innards, but the images seem to suggest its just a plain jane.

We still had one at Osan AB in 1988 that I was qualified on. They were primarily replaced by M113s in Korea. I know the 3rd Security Police Squadron still had a couple at Clark AB, Philippines in the 80's also. Definitely looking forward to this one

Judging by the sprue shots, the very open interior will be even more disappointing than the straight M706 Commando. Disappointing, that is, except to those brave souls that are willing to work through the shortcomings and turn that sows ear into the silk purse we've all heard about...

The work involved would scare me into either a different kit or the more usual waiting for a better offering. Scratch-building interiors is HARD on some vehicles. Ya, ya, A good challenge, I know; just not for me at this point in my crowded life.
