That is just SO cool that they came out with it in plastic, (Asiatam had a metal one, but the cost of it was silly). Thank you very much for sharing this project with us!

They are shipping me a missing part, the complete upper deck was not there whahaha!

All parts seem to be silky smooth. But a good manual is missing too...

Does this photo help? Inside of the turret (underside of the turret roof).

Could well be 3d printed - too thin to be resin.

I'm lucky my wife offered to help starting to assemble the tracks, 240pcs!

Altough I really dislike these tracks. :-(

Just to explain why I dislike these tracks, I happen to own some Asiatam metal Elefant tracklinks... That feels SO much better!
