The following photo-etch sets are for the Trumpeter 1/72 M-1126 Stryker
kit.
#22-127 M-1126 Stryker ICV
This PE set is for general detailing on the Stryker including upper
and lower hull as well as further detailing for the .50 caliber machine
gun. Here you will find enhancements for replacing grab handles, tow clevis,
screens, light mounts, hatch detail, jerry can mounts, external stowage
mounts and others.
#22-129 M-1126 Stryker ICV Slat Armor
If you would like to take a step further in detailing your Stryker try
this slat armor set. It is a little more challenging step but worth while.
Here you can make your Stryker into the version that is currently used
in Iraq as a urban upgrade. The challenge is the delicate and numerous
mounting brackets. The slat armor is finely detailed but flat (vertically)
rather than horizontal as on the actual vehicle. The finished product
would be eye catching to say the least. Included in this set are some
other external upper hull detailing including spaced armor plate which
you are instructed to use cut rod as spacers.
Conclusion
As usual, Eduard's level of detail is very well done in 1/72 scale especially
the grills and stowage straps (nice buckle detail). I highly recommended
both sets but the slat armor set will take some patience and skill but
the results would be worth it. I would like to thank Eduard
for the review sets.
