From what I have been able to tell, heck yea. Goobs of detail, is a better scale in 1/35th allowing for more use of detail parts like those wonderful hollow exhaust pipes from Russia. You get 2 AFS figures, a Mel and a Gustav. That mean you do not have to spend blood finding a Mad Dog copy of the Gustav suit.
Kits I am aware of: Nitto 1/76 plastic version, can find, but starting to get up there in $. Good detail, about the size of 1/35 Armor.
1/20 Vac Hull w/resin turret. Not too sure, believe Rainbow Egg, or maybe from a fella on MK Forum. BIG, great detail and hock the kid to get a copy!
WF version I think, again, another one for the collector.
And now, the Hasegawa version as I mentioned above. If you are into Ma.K, this will be a must, or if you set back too long and wait for a price drop! They will all be gone and you will pay w/blood to get a copy from some guy hording them in a far away country???????
I pre-ordered mine from a model supplier in Japan and saved about $40.00 from what the kit will retail for, which I believe will be over $100.00. Steep, yes, but have seen pic's of the parts and the kit is the top of the food chain.
So, as stated before, I for one am excited to see this come along and wish they would @ some later date pop a Oskar too
