Oh what another Centurion variant? Why isn't it a Mark 3(or any version other than the one depicted)? Or a Bergepanther.
Okay, now that the contents of the next ten posters is said and done with... this is freaking awesome! I like Israeli Cents generally but this particular layout is nifty .

Here is hoping that Afv-club goes to these lengths in producing M60 variants! Life is good.

This is exciting news and I'm interested in the kit, but I really want to get my hands on AFV Club's Sho't Kal 1973. Can't even find it on e-bay. Does anyone know where I can find one?

kinda like the Bergepanther thing...though the sho't is really cool too. Wonder if AFV will be interested in making a Bergepanther. Just kidding. Maybe...

If I didn't have a specific build in mind for my Shot Kal 1973 kit, I'd sell you mine. Unfortunately, I need the kit to build a replica of Avigdor Kahalani's tank during the Yom Kippur War. I am about 2/3 complete with the AFV Club 1967 Shot Centurion, and it's a great kit, also! I think Shot/Centurion tanks are really interesting AFVs, and would really be interested in building more/other versions in addition to the '67/'73 kits, so the topic kit is of great interest to me.

Quinton,

This has just been posted at Facebook:



I see he has what you are looking for. Look for Tiger Model Designs, he's currently unloading stuff.

Cheers,

Tat
