Ran one of the big trenchers we had in Nam, believe it was an FWD. Now that would be a cool kit

Knowing the quality of Trumpter, which T90 S do you think will be better, theirs or Tigermodel?

Hi;

To the best of my knowledge Tiger has only the MS as do Trumpeter, altho I don't have the Tiger MS I can see its features that I like over the Trumpy, kit. The feature that I really dis-like about Trumpeter is the way they incorporated the retaining straps for the Fuel panniers & Zip Boxes. There just to Fiddly, the T-64s,72s,80s and the T-90s all have the same way with the Straps. !
At first I thought what A Pain the Track's were going to be with there two part system, but after the clean up, they went together pretty fast.

CHEERS; MIKE.

From what I read about the building review about tiger BMPT ....the result is not that happy as you hope I'm afraid.....
