From HobbyLink Japan: hlj.com/product/HOB24802/Mil
Circa $10 USD a whack at the current yen to dollar exchange rate. Not a perfect kit, but looks like it's a good way to build up a 28mm M4 inventory on the cheap…

It is very inexpensive. I've built two of these: the vinyl tracks can be problematic. |

HobbyBoss are pretty good kits. Yes the tracks are fiddly but in the end you have a really nice model. They have a tool to help you create the curved portions and you have to be careful not to glue the track to that as well. For gaming you have to be careful but getting two tanks for the price of one Warlord tank is a good trade off. I have done the KV 1 and 2. I did all for of them at the same time. Took me 3 hours for the tanks and then another 2 hours for the tracks. So it was worth it in the long run. just my opinion from experience. Hope it helps as I owe the community a big one for all the help I got over the last few months. JH |

Well I was excited but the one per customer rather makes it not so much of a deal. |

ODB likes to tease you with those 1 per customer links. I understand why it is that way but still not fair. :-( Grimm |

Gents, when I posted IIRC, it *wasn't* limited to one per customer… Leland R. Erickson Metal Express metal-express.net |

Just buy these: link If you shop around they are 10 bucks all the time. I find them in my local walmart. With a little work they come out real nice. |

I 2nd the "QUAKE" Revell snap together kit. They are about $10.99 USD at Hobby Lobby craft stores which run a coupon online for 40% off one item… |
