There has been a dozen definitive versions of the Tiger 2 for years. This is a bone idle release.
The interior kits by Meng and Takom are about perfect. You are talking out of your headhole

MENG lost much fame on their KT and Panther tanks. They truly provided a full set of interior, with a hull with incorrect dimensions ( too long IMHO) and too "erected" suspension bogeys, make it looks taller. Some modellers complained about poor plastic (especially the dark red release) even turned their cement red.
Despite more than 12,000 sets ordered even before released, it's just a kit with reasonable price.
Look at the link-and-length tracks, would you tell the parts as "tracks" before they are attached to running wheels?
Well, there is a movable individual track and "torsion bar" sets sold separately, price nearly equals a tank.

Perhaps there were some small issues - but there are also some good points. No kit is perfect and some require more work than others. Most modellers like to tinker about to add their own mark and make any corrections found by research. The more experienced you become the less likely 'OOB' builds
As for tracks - don't make me laugh! Most Modellers (not me) spend a fortune on metal tracks and lazy AM stuff.
Ps my apologies for the harsh initial post - no disrespect meant
This kit has been popular, the interior makes the Trumpeter 1/16 one look a joke (which was one of the reasons for the interior set), has a metal barrel and will build into a fine rendition of the real thing
You can look at a few of my attempts at builds - a few cheap kits were just test beds to get my skills up as I spent about 3 decades away
I always scratch were necessary after I read up on the subject. Today there is too much reliance on AM and metal tracks

It's worth the price. But not a nice kit. MENG "referred" 1/16 Trumpeter kit during research.
However the process was a mess.
If we talk too much about MENG that's off the topic.
Back to the kit, they did not intend to release a best kit, they wanted a best sold one.
You can build a full interior KT, that's the fact.
Well, tracks are another story...Too many inaccurate and expensive aftermarket sets from Chinese brands...

Perfect job! I must admit I have a soft spot for two-seat Harriers...
