1/35 M1240A1 MRAP All-Terrain Vehicle (M-ATV) (ETA APR)

This was the kit I loved to hate. I loved it in that if you want a lot of parts (that don't fit easily), great diagrammed instructions book (that don't give you the correct part # on many steps), lots of photo etch parts (not just for additional detail- but are just as critical for completing the next step). I used the Edwards interior and exterior kits to further my aggravation. Sometimes the kits photo etch parts worked better than the Edwards, and vise versa. Best to bend them both out and see what works, and looks best between them both. Sometimes you have to mix and match. The instructions book has beautiful diagrams, but NO painting hints. If you want paint colors or suggestions Google mraps and use real life pictures. I couldn't wait to be done with this frustrating kit. Now that I'm done with the kit build and now working on accessories and final details I kind of miss it? You will need a lot of patience and will do a lot of trimming.
