The hull is the same as the T-70 and T-80 kits, so much information can be gathered from the T-70M and T-80 preview. The turret is different however.

The Turret
You get 9 plastic parts (only 7 to be used), 20 PE parts and 28 decals. Not all are used and I am not sure this vehicle had any markings.
The turret walls are a bit thick but easy to sand down, there are a few scratches on the inside that will be easy to fix. The 2 DShK's looks great and are really delicate. I already broke the top part of the barrel.
There is something weird with the PE parts: there are no bend line and with a total of 10 folds to make that will be hard to do. I'm going to use plastic strip for some of the PE as glueing down plastic strips is easier to do than bending the PE. No seats, ammo cans or controls are provided for the interior and as it is an open top vehicle that is a great miss.

 

Remark:
Additional pictures of the box and manual can be found on the Henk of Holland website.
