Personally...I would leave the HE as is and sell it on Ebay or some classified ad. Then I would get the HL or Tamiaya static Abrams. But that is just me.

Re: Backdating HL Abrams M1A2 to A1
Update:
HL Abrams acquired yesterday!! Grief its a much more 'solid' tank!
I have the Haynes manual on the Abrams and also intend to watch the National Geographic film about the factory where they're built and refurbed so, when I've gen'd up, I'll have a better idea about markings. What's the best Tamiya colour for a sand scheme?
Thank you

Good decision
The less work on the model = more fun on the playground

"What's the best Tamiya colour for a sand scheme?" I just did a quick Google Advanced Search with three terms: "Abrams," "Tamiya," and "Sand." Lots of reviews for kits came up with various opinions and suggestions.
