I’m getting about ready to build the Tamiya Leclerc and have gathered a couple of books and a bit of AM, below.

As I read through the books I of course realized the Tamiya kit could use some minor fixes and then recalled a tweaks list for this kit on the old site. I thought it would be a good idea to decide exactly what I’m building before I start rather than go off half-cocked. Does anyone remember the list I’m talking about? I thought I had downloaded it but my hard drive crashed since then. Any help appreciated.

I believe you might be thinking of the list that Olivier Carneau (Bison 126) put together.

He also has a walkaround of it on his home page … it is full of info.

The main link is in his profile here. I have used it lots of times, its very useful.

Has anyone seen the Tiger Model Leclerc?

It is available in Japan and on ebay. Have not seen one in person. It is supposed to depict a model of the later series, Heller being the earlier version, Tamiya somewhat later version.

It does represent the latest version in service with the French army. It has some interesting features that Tamiya didn’t include in their kit like the turret side bins which can be depicted open.
