Jim,

Firing Line makes one in white metal. It comes in a set with a Blowpipe launcher. They also sell a set with a Carl G and crew.

Great Models Webstore has both sets available on special order status.

I have the Carl G and Blowpipe set, it's pretty good. It will need some fine tuning to bring it up to par.

There is also an injection molded version included in the Trumpeter JGSDF Type 89 IFV kit...I have only seen photos of the sprues...it looks like a Carl G.

Picked up the Type 89 today and yes it has the Carl G.Thanks for the tips.As an added bonus two of the crew could be used for CDN AFV figures!(with miner mod of course)

Mike,can you tell me what ICV kit to look for.

Thanks for the help.

Hi

sorry for the delay but just checked the site again on June 6, the kit is the type 89 ifv with a few crewman and the carl g and not sure what the light mg is but if it is what i think it is more cancon.And you can also get the same sprue set in the new command and nbcw release from trumpeter of their 6x6........

Mike happy to pay trumpeter price for a nice kit and accessories.......
