                        Posted by mic53mlb on Saturday, April 13, 2024 11:15 PM

                        I got an E Flyer yesterday from Squadron for the new Miniart 1/35 M3 Stuart, does anybody know about this ?? I'm very curious. As a kid I ( way before the internet and cell phones) I was always on the lookout for Tamiya's M3 Stuart ( at the time it was out of production) but never got my hands on one. I'm told the Tamiya kit is/was good but not accurate. I know there are other kits out there by other manufacturers but usually in foreign service not US Army. Anyway, if someone can shine a better light on this it would be appreciated.

                        The kit will likely be qute accurate, but also quite complicated... particularly the boxing that has the complete interior. I do believe that they will also release a version that does not include the interior. The new Tamiya and older Academy M3 Stuarts do include US markings as well as Lend Lease British and/or Soviet markings.

                        The middle link I posted seems to be a version without interior.

                        So there seems to be a initial production with interior, one without interior, and a early production with interior. I guess next they will make an early production without interior!
