Hay Chris,
Its actually scaled to fit the 1/35th Tamiya M5A1. Each set will come with the Tamiya kit to complete the build. I just finished doing the mesh part up for the main body and will be talking with my caster to see if the cuts ive made to the mesh will be castable....there were under cuts on the cowlings that would be impossible to cast the way it was .
I hope to have more info on the run soon.

Sounds good and should work with my AFV Club kit with a little tweeking. Do be aware though that the Tamiya kit is known to be short in length(according to Steve Zaloga in an older Military Modelling AFV issue). Just PM me when you are done and ready to ship these as I am in for one for sure.
