The most significant problem with the hull in #6388 is that the roof plate over the fighting compartment is 2.6mm too long. This extra length has been added between the turret race and front edge of the roof plate.
The resulting hull is flawed: the excess length (between the turret and front edge of the top plate) also affects the length and position of the welds joining top and side plates and the length and location of the fender panels.
Even if you force assembly by hacking away at the front and back of the hull, the turret still sits too far aft, by 2.6mm, and those welds and the fenders need to be rebuilt.
My comments, and my measurements, are based on a #6388 kit I bought shortly after release. If DML has tinkered with the moulds, it is news to me, but that is certainly the status of the kit as first released.
I would expand upon my comments regarding DML and their T-34s, but this is a family audience, and I would likely be banned for using bad words.
