This kit seems to be as wonderfull as it looks in it´s plastic bags... it´s just jumped 3 places higher on my "I have to build that in 2015" list😉

I picked it up for £36 at Scalemodelworld Telford. Tamiyas kit is the same kit aswell if you can pick it up for less.

I was wondering. They have the newer Asuka boxings out here for around $65.

Really love the Tasca kits, very jealous individual here. Looking for more pics.

This looks like a really nice kit. So the Tamiya one is essentially this Tasca Kit with additional Tamiya figures?

Both kits are the same. I'll be cracking on with this project again and will upload pics as I go.

Yeah, the Tamiya one just has some rather underwhelming Tamiya figures, that's all.

I was looking at the Bravo figures based on the characters from the film Fury which look really good. Trouble is they look hard to source 🙁

Finally completed. Displayed on a small diorama ( Somewhere in Germany 1945) using a mix of Dragon,Miniart and Masterbox figures.

Wow Martyn, that is extraordinary ! Sharp and clean, great paintjob ! Especially the crew is fantastic, and,being a lot into The Disney patches of WW2, I love the "angry Turtle" as well.
