My kit is the original issue and I found that by adding an anti aircraft gun and crew to the kit I replicated a perfect vehicle base for such a large modification. The kit is fairly straight forward with easy to follow instructions that Tamiya is very good at writing and diagraming. There is no die flash of other problems with the parts. The detailing possibilities run from very basic to adding many extras. This kit will certainly fill the German wheeled vehicle gap as a great addition.
