Gary,

That helps and it does include the tow pintle and bottom half of the bracket, which are nice corrections. But, the tow pintle is too narrow and it includes many of the original HL inaccuracies. So, I'm hoping that back plate is plastic because it would me much easier to correct the details in plastic than in cast metal.

It's a good step forward - I trust there will be sounds specific to various tanks.

It's not cheap to upgrade to a new sound board and radio so an add on such as this gets my vote on the RTR stage. :thumbup:

Good afternoon,
I agree. I would like to hear this with one of Maxs cool Speaker Boxes attached. Wow, tho' they have come a 'country mile' in terms of electronics. I'll be looking for the US Taigen version of this lower for my DAK Pz IV.
regards,
Painless

The rear roller is in line with the others instead of being dropped and I noticed the Cupola vision slit was not in line with the Main gun and of course the engine bay is straight behind the turret instead of being sloped toward the rear,
Still they have finally got the correct headlights fitted.
All of which some might say is me being picky except they have had at least ten years to get these simple faults sorted,
Shaun.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:

If the cupola is anything like the old one(wich I believe it is) they just attached it the wrong way. You can see the neatly centered vision slit looking backwards :P

The vision slit is pointed the right way on the unpainted pictures of it.
