Thanks - Its not a bad kit even though its from the 70's. Its mostly wheels when you build it...

I remember fighting with poor tracks on this kit. But it doesn't seem you had the same problem. but you're right, it's a nice little kit

I super glued them together and they slipped on like a couple of rubber bands!

Album info

5th Company, 17th Tank Regiment, Operation Ichi-Go, China, 1943

This Airfix kit has been around since the mid-1970's. It builds up quickly with most of the parts going to the complicated running gear. There are 4 decals, 2 of them lightening bolts for the side of the turret. My Yellow striping clashed with them so I left them off. The tank is built OOB with minor details added to enhance the drivers hatch and tool box.
