Headache pills. lol. Just might need them. Time will tell.

I don't think that Tamiya kits have flash in principle, or at least not in my experience. But the detail is a quite outdated. So it is very good that you have PE sets that would bring the kit to todays standard.

Have you decided on paint scheme?

Love these armored cars! so much packed into such a small space.

I think there is a small burr on the roof of the hull in the rear (pe part). better to sand it before you paint.

Photo etch looks cool.
