    Dave,
    I totally appreciate the quandary of interiors in kits.
    From the point of view of someone that enjoys the building phase a little more than painting (me)....I’m a fan.

    I don’t display my models as such, they get put in a box in the attic..... so from my point of view, a visible interior is totally irrelevant as long as I’ve enjoyed doing it then I’m a happy bunny:smiling4:

    Then I can see those that don’t like an interior feel cheated that they’ve paid for something that not getting used. Maybe in time more manufacturers will give you the option with or without?

                            Is it just me, or does the 1/35 th rail wagon look to be carrying a 1/72 tank? Interesting subjects though....

                              The Badger was a "paper panza" developed on the Conqueror chassis. it never made it to production.
