Novice and Expert Model

By: johncpo41 (www.hobbiesinabarn)

This is one of the best in the series of small tanks that Tamiya has lined up from the beginnings of their models. The parts are crisp with little flash if any and the fit is a perfect one. I had no trouble building this kit as I had the sister M8 and M5A1, all of which are superb for any level of experience in scale modeling. No matter the detailing of the kit there are some options for adding extra gear and some within the kit itself. This kit comes re-issued so grab two or three for a tank regiment of you own! General Patton rode one!

excellent model for the price

By: rarem37

I thought this was excellent model. It is simple enough for a beginner, but offers enough detail for the intermediate to advanced builder to enjoy. There are small pats such as grab handles, but no photo etch. The price is another reason I consider it excellent.
