Marder II D question

Really, you should trade the kit or give the kit away with the kit.  If you're like me, modeling time is too short to mess with decades old molded kits when excellent ones are around the corner (DML kit).

Lol. They're not that bad and they do make a nice model when finished. I hear Dragon has improved immensely since  I did any of them. Maybe it was because I was new to building or maybe their tooling weren't so great but the kfz 250 with the 2cm mount and the Nashorn I did about 10 years ago were about the same in their finer details. It didn't help that i'd prepainted all the parts either. I'll keep the Alan but if I don't hear otherwise I'm using the Tamiya gun with it. The Alan gun WILL go in the trash.

I don't see any reson why you couldn't make the Tamiya gun work with the Alan kit. Both vehicles used the same gun, the only issue you might run into is the base of the gun mount needing some adaptation depending on how the Alan kit designed its mount vs. Tamiya's.

Thanks Bill.

OH go ahead and build it Joe.

I wasn't to thrilled about what I found in the box ether but since I had already ordered the AM for it and no real reason to let it go to waste I tackled the thing and enjoyed every minute.

I'm still going to buy the Bronco example when it comes out.

Just do it and enjoy
