Team Yankee - M1 Abrams Kit Preview

Hello

It feels like Team Yankee is almost upon us, stores are taking pre-orders and some have copies of the rule-book out on display.  We've now know what the box sets will contain and how much they'll be selling at.  Here we have another sneak peek of a plastic kit, this time for the iconic M1 Abrams.









It looks, quite detailed to me...lots of fiddly bits to put together, I counted 38 bits, but I assume you won't be using all of them.  Well, you'll have your mitts on some of these in no time, so get your plastic glue of choice at the ready.

Edit: The day after I wrote this the delay was announced...at least it's only two weeks.

  1. Thanks for this, looks pretty good to me. Re the two weeks I agree it's only a short time. I for one am sick of the moaners on the TY Forum. I've run my own small hobby business and the unexpected does happen.

    1. Looks like you can build the A1 with the 120mm! Cool!

    2. By Jove I think you're right. There are two gun tubes and one has a rather bulgy bore evacuator.

  4. In the moaners defence Paul, "unexpected" delays are the norm for BF these days, rather than an exception.
