I bought that kit a couple months ago, and really liked it. Have not had the time to start it, but have done some research. Looks like they used at least three different booms on them. I'd expect TAKOM to do at least one more version, plus a tank retriever, without the boom. I'll be all over them!
Any problems encountered during construction?

The boom instructions are a little flaky and you have to drill open a lot of holes so watch for the call outs. you might go through the booklet and mark them with a red pen before hand. Don't push the track links together tight,that seems to help them from being short btw there's some extra links on another sprue four flat pads and four double "I" UK pads encase you need them.
