I build the Dragon's Panzer II, with full interior, individual track, clear part on the periscope, decal for six different marking and a small piaces of PE which consisting all the bucket for stowage.
But for the reason of easy build and fitting, I believe a lot modeller will chose Tamiya. ^_^

Yes!!
For reason of easy building, many would look forward to the Tamiya Panzer II. I've got two of the old ones, one built and waiting to be painted but I think it will need upgrading and detailing to bring it up to present standards.
I just got me the AFV IDF Centurion Shot and...Yikes!!...my hair stood on ends when I saw the amount of parts. Would have preferred the road wheels molded in one as opposed to the rubber lining and all. :angry:
Oops...off topic again. Yes!! Panzer II...why so many of the same ones?

Mr T did not go crazy ... just jumping on the Pz II bandwagon.
Interesting enough ... the kit has its hull and turret retooled ... to make the early Pz II so its NOT the same as DML's in a matter of speaking... except for that Stuz PzII. which retails circa RM 150....
Personally if the parts count is limited, this might be a good weekend kit provided that the price is correspondingly reduced as well.
Yen 3200 does not go well with many modellers especially for a quick build. :(
Having said that, their earlier Pz II was Not all that bad B) ... got it finish during one modelling session at HHQ (4 hrs) pending painting only. Minimal gaps and really nice turret actually... just don't use those figures OOB ... :P
Now where did I put my unpainted Pz II ???? ... :unsure: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Not my cup of tea.
I prefer detail, but not fast build, haha.

personally i'll go for DML (i've got the pzII ausf f) for better details (w/engine & full interior) and cheaper pricing, compared to mr. T's version....
