My D'hif arrived today, and I can say that I am surprised at how complex, and complete, this is. Approximately 3 dozen parts of cleanly cast resin, photo-etch, and wire rope are included. I cannot get the included CD to work in my computer, which may be operator error, but I will work on that. My only complaint is how long it took to arrive here, in New Zealand, when it was ordered and paid for 14 September. Not that I "needed" it sooner... Kylie

I have one on the way as well, looking forward to it.

OK, so the CD is working now, still now sure why not earlier... but great photos of the real deal on a Merkava 2 and 3. Having looked at this a bit closer, it really has the 'wow' factor; the detail is amazing, and looking at the instructions, can be made operable. It is rather complex, but that is fine, as we have a long weekend this weekend, which I'm not working, so can spend some time putting this together. Great stuff. Kylie
