An older kit but but finely detailed and fun and easy to assemble. The decals are very good and there is minimal flash throughout. The only sticking point is the barrel as it is a two piece assembly and the fit into the turret will take lots of patience and fiddling to get right. The glaring space where a turret cover where the barrel comes out from the the turret will require you to fashion a cover of some sort using paper or gauze. The tracks are good and you can get away with a lot in respect of them as the tank side skirts are very large - and easy to fit. Overall, a really good kit and offered as excellent value.

Bought primarily to practice with my new airbrush as I mainly do RC. This is relatively simple kit with everything fitting well with clear simple instructions. Suitable for novice (me!) . Great service from Wonderland.

This is based on an old kit - the body is dated 1978 and has fittings for batteries and an electric motor - sadly no longer included. However, this is a very well detailed model, and bearing in mind others are available at three times the price, excellent value. The track is one piece flexible plastic, there are 3 crew members, opening hatches, decals for 3 different versions, only significant omission is no clear plastic for the lights and vision blocks.
