1/35th AFV Club Kit No.35043
Review by Terry Ashley

This set is designed for any of the Tamiya Sd.Kfz.251D Half-track kits. It consists of the running gear and vinyl track taken direct from the new AFV Club Sd.Kfz.11 3ton Half-track Kit 35040 plus two resin parts for the axle location which replaces the parts in the Tamiya kits directly.

Some minor modification will be needed on the Tamiya half-track to accommodate the new front suspension, but nothing that shouldn't prove too difficult.

The new wheels and track are an improvement over what is in the Tamiya kits so should prove worthwhile.
It is interesting to see one mainstream kit manufacturer releasing an "update" set for another mainstream kit manufacturers kits?

BTW, did you notice the spelling of "Wheels" on the box top, just slipped in to see if you are awake I'm sure.
