Yikes! This model tested all my patience just to be able to finish it. There are several online reviews about this kit and their comments are all true. This model is not for the casual modeler. In fact, I can't recommend this kit at all. I actually packed it away once I discovered there were two sizes of brass rods, large springs, and small springs as I was building the road wheel assemblies. Only the fact that I have never let a model beat me brought me back.

The kit is so, so, SO over-engineered. The road wheel assemblies are ridiculously complex. Tons of microscopic bolt heads, complex and fiddly PE (thank God the kit includes some injection molded alternatives), and link and length tracks that are juuust long enough to fit without any room (or extra links) to spare, make every bit of this build a constant source of frustration.

I would only recommend this kit for the sadomasochistic modeler out there. The only fun I had with it was when I tossed the box out when I finished it!

Always fancied this kit but looking at the instructions put me off.If I were to attempt it I might go down the (buy a couple of cheap Bren carriers for the running gear) and crack on with it.
