Gone overboard? Nah. Judging from your list you sound like a man with a plan.

The only thing that comes to mind problem wise might be the Trumpeter Abrams turret. If they've not corrected it you'll have to add a wedge of plastic to the left hand side face of the turret. This piccie will explain things better than I could (bottom turret):

Thanks for the heads up on the turret, fingers crossed they fixed it. I do have a plan but the million £ question is will i be able to pull it off? My plan is to a Dio of 1 Abrams (Trumpeter) 2 Humvee's and some troops in the Desert.

Seriously Rab, if your aircraft are anything to go by, these should turn out pretty smart :thumbsup2:

Good luck and looking forwards to the build reports :thumbsup:

Well i recieved most of my items:

The HobbyCraft Humvee, what can i say, it's very toyish comes with a motor and lacks any detail what so ever, tbh i don't think i will be using this kit.

Dragon M1A1 AIM, well there is nothing much i can say about the Abrams, the kit is fantastic in all aspects.

Tamiya Humvee, just wow i will be getting another one to replace the Hobbycrap one.

Trumpeter M1A1HA very nice kit bit heavy on the some of the details but still a very nice kit.

Echelon Decals, just a Another WOW fantastic and in register can't wait to use them.

Accurate Armour things that i got very nice and will save time.

If you want pics please ask and i will provide them.
