Hi, I have one on order but told Gill to hold it till December. Need to get more work done on the Tiger to make space. I think Gill was holding no 004 for me. Nice to see some pictures though if you get time. It would be interesting to see were they are going around the globe.

Any nice detail parts in the kit. What about the foot boards. What pattern. Looking forward to getting started . Lots of ideas for detailing but depends what's in the kit. Panzer IV has so much character.

G'day,

Mine arrives 25/11/11 hopefully or close to that date. As with others, much anticipated. Like waiting for Santa.

Biggest problem is deciding what campaign/area of ops to follow. A change of mind every 3 hours.

Pictures will be posted.

Hi all,
I have one on order, but like John I will delay mine just a tad. Looking forward to seeing everyone's build.

What do the tracks look like? I understand they are machined vs cast?

Some pix would be great! :roll:

I thought that the track links are the same cast ones as used on the panzer iii :?:

Hi all

The track links are cast, the same as the Panzer 111. It is the T34 that has machined links. Treadplates are included with the kit. The turret is machined from solid, like the T34s. A full set of Armorpax detail parts is included.

Hi All,

My Pz IV (No. 023) arrived last week and I thought I'd have a go at the smaller box items first - wheels and return rollers. Lots of little jobs to do on assembly such as clearing holes & cleaning threads - I love it!
