I ordered one from Tristar direct along with the Pz IA w/interior. Don't know how long I will have to wait but I am sure it will be worth it.

Here are the sprue shots
Lower hull tub and interior (from Flakpanzer 1A kit)
New sprue. Includes engine parts and the frame around the compartment.
Following two sprue are from Pz 1 ausf A #35003. The turret obviously will not be used.
The two figures
Running gear from Pz 1 ausf A #35003
Suspension parts from Pz 1 ausf A #35003
Track links
Clear parts
Decals
PE parts

Some close-up photos
This to me is the highlight of the kit. The engine block is slide molded as a single piece!
Underside
Radiator cover. There are no gaps between the vanes. I put this down to the limitation of injection molding.
The radiator. Looks exactly as what you see in a car but only smaller
Fan
Fan cover
Fuel tanks
Engine parts
The detail of the figure is very good

Thanks for the pics. This is a very nice kit from what I can tell in the pics. I am just a little curious why Tristar went from a single piece lower hull to a multi piece. My only guess is to detail the interior and floor. But is that not possible with slide molds? Great kit.

Roy,
Tristar went to a multipiece hull starting from the Flapanzer 1A.
There are bolt details on the inside that would be very difficult, if not impossible to depict with slide molding.
Here's the inside of the lower hull sides.
