Default Proline Panther G to A Conversion?

Did I see a conversion kit for the Panther?

Thanks

Don

I am pretty sure I saw one but am having memory problems

I beleive it was from Europe, possibly the Czech Republic and it was nice looking, but pricey.

I have it in my build queue for this winter, its a Ausf D - complete new upper hull, and a few other parts. Not sure its entirely worth the expense - tho I do appreciate the amount of resin and everything else required to produce it, so the cost is understandable from that standpoint.

I had no problems getting it shipped out to me in the US last Christmas (tho shipping took forever because of the printer cartridge bomb shenanigans going on at the time!).

Don, the kit does represent a D model though it could be very easily converted to an A model of any type, I did ask questions though only got vague responses one thing I was told was that you would have to use the tool brackets from a Panther G which would be very wrong as they bear little resemblance.

ExPat may be able to answer these questions
Is there an MG ball mount in the kit to convert to latter A model
Is there any hinges for the hatches including the drivers vision port

I'll have to bust open the box and take a looksie, but based on previous experience with theses kits I'd suggest that if you can't see what you want in the pictures on their website, you are probably going to be disappointed...
I don't recall a ball mount MG option, but that could probably be salvaged from the donor hull with the aid of Dr Dremel...
