It really went together well with no real issues. The only downside, if you will, is that I couldn't pose the wheels and tires except moving straight ahead...that is unless I wanted to do some major plastic surgery. Not a real problem for me. I chose the Trumpeter kit because my son was a Fire Support Team (FIST) leader and this kit models an M1131 Fire Support Vehicle with the Laser range finder and target designator. Like I said, your build is beautiful...and I apologize because I did not intend to hijack your thread.
Thank you Tom for the information.
Setting a 4 wheeled steering mechanism is difficult. I do not thing that AFV Club's kit has it because I would have used it.
No problem. I already checked the price of this kit and appears to be a good candidate for my next AFV purchase.
Another awesome model, Rafi! Excellent details and ditto painting and weathering!
Thank you Spiros!
A beautiful representation of the Stryker, Rafi @blackmopane
Great weathering.
Thank you John.
Great build of an impressive beast Rafi.
Thank you Guy.
Very nicely done. A really nice kit that builds well. I used it to build my son's Stryker when he was stationed with the 3rd Cavalry Regiment...
Thank you Tom.
It looks as if Trumpeter's Stryker is as good as AFV Club's.
