Hi Carlos, this kit is the old Dragon "Imperial Series" Stug IV. It was the third Stug IV I built in 2018 and my least favourite. I had heard that "Imperial Series" were Dragons first foray into 1/35 scale armour back in the early 1990's and could be hit or miss. This kit was one of the latter. I had to scratch build the rear idler mounts, as none came with the kit. I did add after market zimmerit and all metal gun barrel to enhance the kit. Dragon have since released much better examples of this iconic assault tank. My advice is to opt for one of their later releases. Hope this is of some help.

Thanks for the information on the kit Gerard. I bought one long ago but have yet to build it. Dragoon really did not include the idler wheel mounts? That's crazy!

Would not recommend this kit as same had some problems. I had to do major surgery to add rear idler wheel mounts, as the kit simply didn't have any. I did add Zimmerit to the build
