Fitting the rubber pads. I says no glue required, but I found that a few of the pads fell out so I decided to put a dot of superglue under each pad. Some of the track pins also kept falling out so again I just put a dot of superglue on each and it sorted the problem. It also didn't stop the tracks from been workable.

Nice result. Actually tinkering with mine as I write. I found the plastic very soft when cleaning up the wheels but nice kit apart from that. Was thinking of a set of tracks to replace the crappy vinyl but looking at the drama you went through... I'd never finish.

Thank you Lads. Yes it was a lovely kit to build. The tracks were a little tricky but worth it. I have the AFV Scimitar to do. I got the Eduard PE set for it as well as the Scorpion Miniatures Ropes, Antenna & Stowage box.
I currently on Academy's Warrior.
