Question about Merkava PE set?

Modeling Subjects Armor

I have the Academy Merkava Mk.2 with mine-rollers and I was wondering, since there is no specific PE set for that version, if the Eduard set for a Mk.3 would be ok for most small details?

Any Merkava expert down here?

Thanks

Well yann I think I’ll save you a few bucks and say that the only Merkava kit Academy got right was the Mk. II. The kit has the PE basket bottom, which really adds to the detail… As for a Merk III and Merk II difference, there are too many to list and buying the PE for a Mk. III would be a waste of money. OOB the Mk. II is probably the only kit they got right! The only thing you should get is the ball and chain set from Legend and use them, the provided ones are garbage! The set runs about 15 bucks. You could get a Merkava I PE set for it since the only major differences in the mk I and Mk II are interior changes, save for the changes in the exhaust system! HTH

Very cool, thanks James. The Legend set was already on my “to buy” list.
