Very detailed and intricate assembly
This was my first Tamiya plastic model I ever built. The details were very inclusive and challenging to paint and assemble, but when combined, culminated in a product that is truly a joy to show off to friends. Some of the parts on the trees were cast too thin to handle at times. But chrome details, actual pose-able steering details, and foil decals, set this apart in my mind from other brand models I've made in the past.
Good model.
I have been modeling for over 40 years and this is the first one I have done by this manufacturer. The detail is outstanding. There are many small parts to deal with which takes a lot of patience. At times, the instruction sheet is confusing and I had some trouble matching the body to the frame assembly. Overall, a great model and I would definately recommend this to anyone.
What a great kit
I haven't built a kit that has gone together as easy as this one. Flash is rare on this kit. I did a little rust and weathering on mine and it has won a couple of awards at some shows I've been to. The steering works and is a nice touch. Tamiya did great with this kit and it is one of their cheaper ones so if you haven't tried a Tamiya kit this is a great place to start.
