Yes, its worth the money. It has a lot more parts than the other kits, especially screws, its one of the few complaints I have about this kit, there are too many metal screws that go into plastic parts. Also pay very close attention when assembling the gearbox. Its a pain to put together but when its done, you'll be glad you bought the Leopard, its very powerful, beautiful to look at, a joy to run outside in dirt. Oh, and make sure you get the correct adhesives, this kit is made out of at least three different plastics, I have been using Model Maker Plastic CA glue from Tower Hobbies and most importantly, this
