I’ve always liked the looks of these figures. I especially like the Pith Helmets. However, I think a tools sprue would have been a better inclusion than a weapons sprue. IMHO.
Okay... dumb question(s): I've been wondering what the four blocks between the fender and the track are for — creating track sag as model tank builders tend to do, only in 1:1 scale?🤔 Lol! Note: The blocks appear in what seems to be an original DAK photo which I'm assuming the box art was based on. Also, wondering if the plastic compound (hardness) will be different from the original (35141) boxing of this kit.
Cheers!🍺

I've never personally examined this set but it appears to be another extremely useful offering from MiniArt that I should look further into. Good poses and realistic figures.
