Sure, let me get a good picture of the MX-153 on all side. I will then make an accurate 3D print.

Hi Barry,
No i dont have one.
The link that i posted basically the guy took the design from 1/35 Bronco XM153 and upscale to 1/16.
I tried to register myself to their online shopping, but they need Taiwanese ID as part of registration? anyway, no luck on that one mean theres no way i can that dude to ship it overseas.
The illustration is from this product Bronco XM153 i found from the net.
This site has quite a large photo of it:

You sure know how to confuse people. The thread is titled Heng Long M1A2. Now I see a Trumpeter kit for a M1A1 and a Tamiya full option kit for a M1A2
