"A must build"
Josey Wales 1867 (Bartlett, IL)
This is a great kit. Perfect detail, nice crew poses. Not an easy kit, but not a hard peice to put together. Tracks fit great, I would paint on the trees and touch up later or as I did once mounted with a toothpick. You will end up with double of some parts, I added some of them in. For example there are two machine guns. I put in the upper part of the armor plate, blended in well. In the end it came out great, you will not be disappointed at all.

"Very nice"

Everything is awesome about this kit. It falls into place. I'm not completely done yet. About 80% finish. I'll be buying another to company this one in a diaroma. The tracks are sweet that they sag

 
"1/35 Tamiya Wespe Italian Front"
Christopher A. Wing (Fresno, CA)
An excellent model kit from Tamiya. The kit has been upgraded in 2018 with a set of link and length tracks and four crew figures. The upper lengths of track have the sag molded in. The main gun is a two part barrel/muzzle brake assembly. Interior detail parts consist of storage containers, radio, MG 34, two MP 40s and ammo component parts. The white and red range pole parts require careful painting. A scale diagram in the instructions provides assistance with painting this part. Interior gun breech detail is adequate for this kit. Attachment of the tow cable to the front of the vehicle is tricky, however a diagram in the instructions will aid the builder with this task. Pioneer tool clamps could be better. The jack and jack box detail is acceptable. Overall parts fit and the plastic quality is first rate. If the builder opts to replicate the two tone paint camouflage pattern suggested in the instructions, then some airbrush painting skills are helpful. This is a good kit for entry level builders as the construction of this kit is straightforward with minimal to no fit issues.

 
"Great fun"

Great fun and not to difficult but also has great detail. I like the extra stuff I.E the small arms and extra shells. I wish the tracks would actually move like the main gun but all in all great fun especially for the price!
