I've been looking at this kit myself lately and then noticed that AFV Club also make one. Does anyone know much about how they compare ?Thanks,

The Tamiya GMC 2½ ton truck is a WW2 version that also saw service in Korea. The AFV Club 2½ ton truck is the more modern Vietnam era (M35A1) and current era (M35A2) version. Although the M35A2 is currently being phased out of front line use.

AFV Club also has just released the former Skybow Big Shot Dodge1¼ ton cargo truck.

Tamiya makes two add-on sets for their deuce and a half. One adds a ring mount, canvas doors, and a rolled back rooftop (35231) and the other adds a cargo load to the back (35229).
