Good first impressions. I had the Matchbox kit and 2 years ago build the Revell version of that. The Puma is an interesting subject with the 8 wheels and turret.

Hi Jason, thanks for the First Impression of this kit. It really does look like Miniart did a wonderful job designing this. I like your new background too. Much less distracting than a cutting mat. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day. Jeff

Definitely will be purchasing this kit Jason. I built the Dragon Models kit last year. Between the full interior and the wild looking camouflage pattern of the box art, I am sold! A sleek combination of armoured car & tank, very cool ride man! 😎✌

Lovely Kit Jason, I have never built a tank or armoured vehicle, something for me to think about. Great review 👍

Hi Jason, excellent review and the subject is beautiful, I love Puma. I will buy it at some point this year, although it's way out of my league atm. MiniArt is growing on me, they have lovely kits and very interesting choice of content, I just got today one of their Tempos and it looks great :) Btw the background looks really good compared to cutting matt, good choice there. Have a great day, Dom

A great job, as usual. Keep up the awesome reviews.

Hi Jason, just getting to this week’s first impressions. Look’s like fun build. Not sure if I have the skills to tackle a Miniart kit yet. Looking forward to the build.

Nice oob review,There are 2 'bookazines' available for this series of vehicles in the LANDCRAFT series from PEN & SWORD

Great first impression, every time I say, I cant buy any more kits and need to work through the stash, I see a kit like this and my resolve starts to weaken.

Jason! Marvellous review! My thrift resolve is getting a thorough stress test at the thought of passing on this fabulous kit. Your vid hasn't helped one bit! 😂 Bugger it! 😅

Also with Miniart, you know they will do all the 234’s. Even the one off “Luchs” turret 234/1

PUMA in 1/48th? Tamiya/Italeri rare as hens teeth that one. I was looking at this kit as my second Miniart kit - alas my bank manager said no.. Nice Review (Miniart have released the Luchs version)

MiniArt....rhymes with 'multi-part'😀

Hi Jason, 😃 I only just noticed you did a review on this, my own review of it is on tonight, so just as well I hadn't seen ANY other reviews anyway really. I agreed with most of your observations but having the advantage of being able to compare the RFM kit, (SPOILER ALERT!) I must say overall that RFM's Puma is the better kit in many respect IMHO. The tooling detail is noticeably sharper and whilst it doesn't have the open hatches down the side, the tyres (whilst rubber) are the best I have ever seen...Miniart's wheels are in 5 sections x8...typical of them: Why have 16 parts for the wheels when you can have 40? 🤣 But there was also quite a bit of flash on my example (see my review later) and I just don't see why the MA version is SO much more expensive? It loses on value alone. You will see what I mean better tomorrow when in a 3rd Puma vid, I put them side by side, and my reasoning becomes clearer...Hope you are welll Buddy! 👍🏻

Hi Jason, this looks to be a great kit, if the interior is done correctly and to a good standard, then it will raise the build to totally exceptional, but please stop show these great kits, as I have a lack of storage room annd find it hard to sneak new purchases home, I hope to see you build this kit soon, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les
