Nice Joe, real nice.

I'm hoping to get the upper hull for my panzer IV build.

Are there metal idlers or just the plastic ones?

Hi Tom,
Just looked at my Pz IV j the idlers are metal the new kit ones are plastic >:< oh dear-more savings every thing from the tracks up to the top hull joint are the same as the Pz IV. So I'll just wait until the spare parts come out and convert my tam PZ IV. Brian...

Are they different to the panzer iv ones? That's pretty disappointing

Yes they are different, I was hoping for at least ABS, but these feel like plastic-plastic to me. I'm a little taken aback with the cost, the idlers, and the very poor Zimm looking decals/stickers. I have a spare set of Taigen P IV metal idlers, I'll see what I can do.
