I'd love to know how this stacks up against the challengers (ho ho ho) from Trumpeter and Tamiya (yes, I know that the latter's desertised).

Looking at the photos on TMN, the bar armour and the 'bird's nest' antenna look heavy compared to the prototype. Pity RFM didn't consider PE for these parts.
