I grabbed the kit in a local hobby store second hand pile about 3 years ago - cost about £15 if I remember correctly - picked up the other bits over the intervening time.I’ve always liked CVR(T)s, and these are quite good kits (for those interested, the Revell ones are just reboxes of the AFV Club ones). Good plan to replace the tracks, though — the single-piece, soft plastic ones you get in the kit look thin and are so short they’re under a lot of tension when they’re around the wheels.
Also: how long ago did you buy this kit, then?
Then they clearly had it for a long time (Look at the sticker on the box.)I grabbed the kit in a local hobby store second hand pile about 3 years ago
They're wearing the 1970's style helmets like these and early-ish combats with the smaller pockets. One has the old style fur lined cap but I've painted it as a private purchaseIt's a great model especially with the SMM parts.Did you get the etched track guards as well? Makes a big difference.
Also I can't tell whether the AA crew are wearing the early Dan Dare helmets or the more modern ones.Hornet do a set of heads with Dan Dare helmets if you need them.

It was a lucky find as it even includes the limited edition resin figureThen they clearly had it for a long time (Look at the sticker on the box.)
