In contrast to my Plattformwagen, I had a far better experience with this stunning kit. I can't sing its praises enough. Despite being a fairly young company, this kit's quality equals if not exceeds Tamiya and Eduard kits. I'm not kidding. T[...]

This kit was a very pleasant surprise... The first kit from a small manufacturer normally sets off all the warning-alarms for me, but this was the "Expert set" boxing with photoetch, painting mask set and technical stencils included in the kit. [...]
