>>> Yes , and I'm quite sure it comes w/ simple instructions in plain English too , so a child could do it , or anybody w/ general model building skills can assemble it. Just like Tamiya's .

* I'm waiting on the Sdkfz. 222 / 223 and Horch 1a 4-wheel truck w/ 2cm Flak mounted in bed , to get here that I pre-ordered. As I can't wait till ETO A gets these two in. * 8)

Actually, these kits are more labor-intensive than Tamiyas.

But Andrew Designs kits surpasses any Tamiya kits in terms of detail. I'm very impressed by them. :D

Yes,....waiting. The Puma supposed to be released september and there is also the Sdkfz 234/1 Flak 38 to be released some time after that.
Kits are very detailed and well put together.

And possibly just as expensive as a full option Tamiya if you intend to make it RC, with a base price of $350, and I don't think it includes any of the RC internals, ie. gearbox, electronics etc., does it...?? Anyhow, I guess that extra detail you were talking about comes at a cost, and it would still make a very nice static model if you didn't want to make it RC. ETO is a good outfit to deal with too, I ordered a set of Schumo photo etched engine intake grills for my Matorro KT, and they arrived at lightning speed. 8)

Gearbox is included, R/C components, receiver/transmitter battery, servo not included, but Tamiya full option kits don't come with receiver/transmitter either.
I think the Puma might run around $500ish at ETO which would put it around same price as a Tamiya. So yeah expensive :? but I'll still get one....two :D
