This is quite a good kit or so i heard.

The tracks are a pain though, they are 3 pieces of plastics PER link. Quite tedious to assemble. Tracks are the reason why i let this kit off.

Check out Timemachine studio for stocks. Else you can also check out tiong bahru plaza.

Price should be around in the $30 range.

For kit No 6232, i have it and the metal barrel it provided with it is incorrect. Length of the barrel's mid-section is too short. That's the only glaring error. You can still use the plastic barrel though.

No. 6254 is the battle of the bulge KT right? If so, i say you should just get 6254 instead of 6232. Just for the corrected metal barrel.

I'm building DML's earlier king tiger (no. 6208) and its a great build! I reckon the newer King Tigers will be great too as they share almost all of it's sprue with 6208.
