My short build review of the Bronco M24 is up at "What's New" today.

Nice write-up too! I just received my M-24 and have only looked at the various sprues of tiny parts. Almost intimidating.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the spare ammo cans provided on the "Ge" sprue do not resemble WWII ammo cans, but look like post-war ammo cans to me. The .50 cal cans on the "G" sprue look like WWII cans though. Also, the five gallon cans on the "Gb" sprue are all water cans, not fuel cans--interesting.

I can only surmise that we will eventually see at least one post-war version of the M-24.

Are you putting together a full article to be published?

I sent in the article this week to Military Modelling. I think it is scheduled for their annual "Armour Special" but I don't know the precise date.

Excellent work as always. May I add great paint job.

As usual Steve you did a great job, painting is fantastic. But i think i'll pass on this kit for the moment, I'v been building the Bronco 'Diana' halftrack and it suffers from the same sort of over engineering as you describe on the Chaffee. Wobbly wheel locations and miniscule parts seem to be a Bronco trademark.
I hate to knock them as the kits are fantastic when you get them built, just not fun to build.
Regard's, Dave.

Steven; - What happened to the wrong angle on the turret roof? Did You change it or has Bronco already retooled it?

Best Regards

As I said in the original discussion on this issue on this discussion group, I didn't bother with it as it would be far too much work for such a minor discrepency.

A full What's In The Box review should be available any time soon on Track-Link.

By the way Steve, that is a very nice build and paint job!

Cheers
Mike Shackleton

Steve are those the kit .30 cal mg barrels?
They look fantastic

They're brass after-market. I'm not sure what brand, as I've bought several over the years and throw them together in a packet.

as always,great work...sorry, been out of the loop for a while, but any idea when is this kit will be available..and can I assume that a late variant will be available at one point,too?

Thanks,
Nick

Nick it is available now, so go get one.
