Just got their Autoblinda kits in the mail (AB40, AB41 and 2 interiors), and all I can say is that they were worth every penny - the plastic is crisp, the pinout marks are hidden for the most part, the 3d prints are optional, they come with an italian army poster from the period as well as scale versions, decals for the instruments and radios, and 2 options for the top plate (on top of the side plates or sandwiched between them which is less stable). It seems they learned a lot of the lessons from their BA64 kits, so I am looking forward to building these and the L6/40 is going on my shopping list.

Ok, couldn’t wait and dug right into the AB40 kit. Some fit issues yes, but overall much better than the Italeri one, the interior fits well, I expect the rail version and the AB43 to come soon. It was quite a joy to build, without the interior you will have some gaping holes from below, but it will look good. Also you get metal springs for the suspension,and metal barrels (with extras).

I have the AB40 and 41 kits. I started the AB 40 and I am happy so far. I’m definitely getting both L6/40 versions. I tried to find the Italeri or Italeri-Tamiya version of this kit, and they are going for beyond-stupid money. I’m talking $100.00

. I’m sure the LANMO kit will be molded better and cost a lot less.
