The interior set is still listed on Eduard's site. http://www.eduard.com/store/Eduard/M-2-turret-interior-1-35.html?cur=2

Good to know.  I guess I missed it or was using the wrong search words.

Gino Eduard has a seperate set for the turret interior as well.

Yup, they did, I think it is out of prodution though.  I couldn't find it on their site.  I had a couple of them to go with older Brads I had.

 

On the workbench: Dragon 1/350 scale Ticonderoga class USS BunkerHill 1/720 scale Italeri USS Harry S. Truman 1/72 scale Encore Yak-6

No, set 35920 is for the later Academy M2A2 OIF kit.  Some of the non-specific parts such as engine screens may fit, but most of the parts are specifically for the M2A2 kit.  For a basic, M2A0 Bradley, Eduard makes sets 35110 M2 Exterior and 35111 M2 Interior.

This is for the Tamiya kit.  will it work on the Academy kit as well?

 
The Academy M2A0 kit is an almost exact duplicate of the original Tamiya kit. the only difference as far as I'm aware is that the track pads moulded on the track shoes are reversed. All other parts are identical.

Academy 1/35 Bradley M2 upgrade ?
Posted by jayjay82 on Wednesday, March 5, 2014 8:08 PM

Will the upgrade kit from  eduard 35920 1/35 Armor‑ M2A2 Bradley Work?

Is it compatible with the original early production Bradley?

I am confused and am not sure if it is for this kit or for the M2A2 academy bradley?

Any help?  I'd be very appreciatve
