I painted the hull and running gear before moving on. The working suspensions is a nice idea, but it’s not really necessary for a static model. The suspension’s working torsion bars installed easily, but the plastic lacks strength and some of the arms were weak. Very nice.From a box crammed with parts, Meng’s Abrams allows you to build one of two versions of the up-armored M1A2 - TUSK I, with extra protection for the hull and hatches, or TUSK II, with more protection for the hull, some for the turret, and added equipment topside.įeatures include working tracks and suspension, posable hatches, optional stowage, clear vision blocks, lights, and optics, and markings for four American tanks in Iraq. With workable tracks and PE, this kit is awesome. I just build an Academy M1A2 and the barrel was one of the finest enginered barrels I've ever put together. So why in the heck didn't they slide mold the barrel? Meng, to me, will never be epic until they start slide molding barrels. In the same kit they slide-mold a snorkel for the engine air intake that I miss took as the barrel. The only thing that I don't like is the barrel is in two halfs. It's a little sanding to correct a few issues. I've built this model before and the instructions can get a little confusing but just take yer time and keep in mind the variant your building. I chose this model because of the USMC AIM variant. This model can be built into 3 different variants of the M1A1. Dragon makes a good AIM but now you can add Meng to the list. There are alot of TUSK I, II, and V2's out there.
