AFV Club M109A2 instructions

[mshackleton]

I have had the pleasure of receiving three new kits directly from AFV Club – AEC Dorchester ACV, SdKfz.263 and M109A2.

I will be reviewing these in more depth in the near future, with all the usual sprue shots and comments, but to wet your appetites I will post up separately the kit instructions and box tops.

On having a quick look at the parts in the three kits, all I can say is WOW!

This one is crying out for an interior. All of the engine hatches are separate and the fighting compartment, too. Maybe we can expect some goodies from Hobby-Fan soon.

Cheers
Mike

Looks very nice as I guess we knew it would!

Hannants have it listed for £39.99. Lucky Models have it for $37.99 = £24.00. Take your pick. Just shows what a rip off this country is when it comes to plastic.

Believe me, AFV Club vinyl tracks are the best in the business. Why put yourself through the pain of individual links?

Cheers

I'm with you. The A2 and later are nice and all, but frankly, I am more familiar with the M-108 and M-109

I actually shot the M109 and M108 while stationed at FT Sill. Don't remember a lot about them as I was only around them for about a week and a half.. I trained on bigger stuff (M110 & M107's), and once I left Sill I never was on one ever again. (what a waste of tax payers dollars)

WOW! AFV Club has been coming up with many great kits recently. I won't be surprised to add more to my stash as I brought my first AFV Club kit few weeks ago... Long Tom gun. Now I was wondering since you work for or work very closely with AFV Club if they are planning to release Mack NO ^X^ & 1/2 ton truck? Seems it is only available in resin so maybe AFV Club should make one...
