As you would expect from Tamiya, this is a top notch kit, good mix of metal and plastic parts with exceptional fit and precision design. I have built over half dozen of these tank kits and this one will fit in well w/ the rest. Although not as challenging as the new Leopard or Centurion full option kits, this is quite a bit less expensive and worth every penny. Highly recommended for the model enthusiast, lover of WWII armor or anyone with a mechanical itch that needs to be scratched.
I have several 1/16 Tamiya R/C kits from hobby summit and the price is on point the service is always great , exchanges no problem ontime communication what more can you want from a store
