After messing around with those old Fujimi kits, I've decided to give up on them. The plastic is brittle, and the running gear keeps breaking off the hull. The tracks are too short, and there are 'axles' missing (mis-molded) on the hull sides.
Stan has some Pegasus KV1s so I think we'll abandon the Fujimi (anyone want to buys a few kits??) and go with the quick assembly kits.
These days I'm a war gamer rather than a modeller. Life's too short ... sigh!!!!!

I know the feeling, my Fujimi kits have been languishing in the garage for 2 decades.
