My second Border kit. The first was the Crusader Mk III - which while finishing up as a good looking model was sub-par as a kit (see separate comments). That said this Mk. IV was a great improvement in terms of kit, fit and finish. The only drawback being the instructions have a number of mistakes, including incorrect numbering of parts (a problem when there are specific left and right hand pieces) and simply not including parts in the instructions - but nothing that a more diligent than usual dry run of the instructions won't fix. And after the experience with the Crusader the link and link tracks were a great improvement - as was the improvement on detail including the opening side ports and gun mount. A nice kit and good to see the improvement on the Crusader. 7/10. Now on to Border's Tiger Early

Apart from the gun cleaning rods missing (and these are easy to source or make) this is a gorgeous kit. It's like Dragon and Tamiya got together and had a baby. The Vorpanzer and schurtzen options are quite welcome.

Kit is missing the short barrel cleaning rods for the L24 gun. The Dragon Panzer IV Gs and F2 have them.

This is my second Border Model kit. I started this in April of 2020. It's a nice kit.
