I honestly got this model to replace an older version I had made that hadn't turned out well. This version of the Tumbler was a bit cheaper than the dedicated Moebius Tumbler kit, and it allows you to make the tank version or the Batmobile version. As I chose the latter, I am not including any pictures to confuse the buyer. This kit has a lot of very small parts and the detailing can be amazing if you have the hands to do it. Because of this, you'll want thin cement for a lot of the connections, as Testors cement will be unpleasant for attaching the windshield wipers, and clear parts. Tweezers will help, too, especially if you're going to attach the seatbelts. One thing you have to watch is the rear axle...it's too long for the kit, and you'll want to file it down a bit so that the big wheel in the back don't shift around so much. A few of the smaller parts like the supports for the air foils aren't well discussed in the instructions, so you will have some experimentation to get these to work correctly. The rear suspension has some tricky areas, too. The cockpit is pretty basic, but pay attention to the front window area, making sure it connects with the body properly. On this build, I couldn't make the front wheels spin like the first kit. Also, connecting the front wheels can be a real pain. I ended up using gorilla glue to get a solid connection. The highlight of the kit is a resin Bane figure...comes in two parts, and is quite detailed. It doesn't have a stand, but it can balance well enough for display. The end result is a beautifully accurate reproduction of the movie prop. It seems more delicate than it actually is. All the little parts that bring the piece to life also make it look like it'll fall over in a good wind. This one is a take-your-time-with-it kind of kit.

This is a tricky build. Some of the joints contact points are off and don’t make any sense. Instruction diagrams vague at best. Tough.

sender was too cheap to even put the model in a shipping box after paying for shipping, and just stuck the label on the box and set it, corner was pushed in, but contents were ok.... Sad these cheap sellers can't even put their items in a shipping box

Excellent model. Addition of the Bane figure and optional armament makes this a "must buy" variant.
