Already have two unbuilt Mengs in my stash, but this is very unusual and I'm intrigued.

You can check the in-box review in this very site, to get an idea about Meng's first AMX-30 kit:

We might expect same quality for the new version...

Heller also has a set of individual tracks available, this could help your build perhaps, they are really well done.




Cheers,

I'll get one of these...I really enjoyed Meng's other version of the AMX-30. They'll look cool sitting next to each other.
