Response to Cripes!

I do not have the kit, but have looked in the box. There are a lot of online reviews and comments. The Perth Military Modelling site review is good.

For its size it is somewhat simplified. I think perhaps there is a motorized version somewhere? the chassis is die cast and a lot of the kit screws together. The model seems to be based on a restored vehicle as it has modern semi-truck style wing mirrors and other civilian/non standard/non wartime details. Probably not a "bad" kit but not as good as their T-34/85 either.

For what its worth the big 1/16 Trumpeter King Tiger seems ok on the outside but the interior is poor with the engine compartment being that of a Panther tank!?!
