Short view of history, turkeys aren’t native to Europe and didn’t become popular until the 20th century

Interesting, there’s quite a bit of aftermarket on there so I had to do some mods.

Got one of those in the stash, the thought of the rigging keeps putting me off, good luck

The vosper mtb is being reissued as well, on pre. Order at the moment

The tool is from 1978, but the kit is a 2025 re- issue, so new plastic and decals

Thanks, as I say it was quite fun, it’s all about managing expectations before you start, it’s a near 50 year old tool so there will be flash and filling to do.

Stick with it, the end result is worth it, just the tracks to negotiate and it’s all plain sailing. If you are fitting the roof cage there are two PE strips, you may want to bin those and make some out of aluminium foil, much easier to bend to the correct shape

Notice on the inside the armour site says they are no longer shipping to the states for this reason

You might want to check out inside the armour, they do some nice 3d printed upgrade parts if you are into some aftermarket upgrades

Of course you could miss a lot of the engine, you won’t see it unless you build it with the covers open. Depends on how you are with getting it right even when you can’t see it in the end

Just make sure the chassis is true otherwise it will throw everything out and watch the engine compartment, the instructions aren’t very clear and there isn’t much room if it goes wrong

The carrier turns into a great kit, but will fill your swear jar. I built the Riich 6pdr to go with mine
