This was my first Tamiya tank kit, and it turned out to be very fun to build and paint. I have liked Tamiya kits ever since. As usual, Tamiya gives the modeler lots of extras like ration boxes, shovel, pick, axe, extra tank treads, etc. You also get options for building the kit, like different versions of the commander's hatch (either a split down the center version, or a newer, round one piece). The commander is a full figure, while the driver is just the torso. The treads are the one piece flexible type, and are relatively easy and quick to attach to the completed model. Highly recommended overall.
