The only tree marked with a "G2" is the upper hull.

Three paint schemes provided:

Clear sprue, Decals and PE
The detail is clean and crisp but for you people that like interior detail forget it. The only thing in there is the 88 and MG breeches.
A nice set of DS strip tracks are provided this time in place of Magic Tracks, you can't make everyone happy.
As far as I know this is the only "G2" out there besides the Tamiya "close but no cigar" Jagdpanther.
I know i'll enjoy this Dragon offering being a SP gun addict but your mileage may differ.
So Long until next time :Hiay
