Interesting read en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EE-T1_Os%C3%B3rio and model choice too, no wonder I never heard of it... there were only 2 made. I will follow this build as it's not every day you see a 2 built prototype model kit! Jeff |

Only 2 built? And Trumpeter made a kit? Wow, that's pretty strange. I had seen this before, but had no idea it wasn't a production vehicle!

Prototype or not, I really like it! It kind of has that Challenger II look about it at the front of the turret & the side skirts PLUS, the duel fans on the rear hull look like one of the Leopard versions. I didn't even know Trumpeter made this so it's like totally new to me! Can't wait to see more!  Jeff |

Hardest part is over... not really but not exactly my favorite part... wheels. Not sure if you agree... great start!

Andy,I have to agree with you on the wheels .The only clean up i had to do on these was were i snipped them off the sprue. |
