Tks for the info. It helps my decision about buying it. It's not like I've never gotten a bad kit before. If it is one it just is. I've never built one by them so I guess I'll try it.
 

If you can avoid issues with a kit, all the better. I have bought a few kits based on reviews and i am often not dissapointed.

I've only built the Tamiya 251 so I'm not going to be much help there, but the 1/72 Panther Ausf D is a good kit with fine details and it built up really well.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy another Zvezda kit. Hope that is helpful.

Tks. I've seen your icm kit and that's a awesome build. I guess I'm just going ahead and get the Zvezda.  I'm going to put in a diaroma but under some camouflage netting so the inside won't be seen as much. It'll probably get a couple of weeks before I get it and get starte. Once I do I'll be sure to let you know how it's going. Knowing that you're a 251 fan. Tks for all the info and help you have given me since I've joined the site. It really has been a great help.

I have not built it yet but it it looks like a very nice kit. The only issue for me is the interiour, it is completly wrong. That have based it on the later Ausf C. So if accuracy is an issue for you, that might be a big one.

But, Zvezda have been getting a good name for themselves over the last few years. I can't imagine you will have to many issues, might be worth trying to find some reviews.

Like trhe ICM kit, i have not seen a Zvezda built up yet, so if you do, you will have my attention.

Zvezda 251

I'm wanting to know if anyone has done the Zvezda 1/35 251 Ausf B. I've not done a kit from them and I'm wondering if it'll be worth the time and money. I'm either going to get it or ICM 251. I've done a tamiya and AFV. I'm just looking for a different kit. But I want it to be a good kit. Tks guys
