Quoted Text

Hobby Boss has announced two upcoming kits ... The second release is a Hungarian 38M Toldi II Light Tank. The Toldi was based on the Swedish L-60B tank, and were mostly used against Russia from 1941-1944, even though they were no match against the T-34.

On a recent thread on IPMS Stockholm, those that have a much better idea than I do, have discussed this and it may be interesting for those wishing to build the Swedish model.
The Toldi I (HobbyBoss kit # 82477) is better suited to make the Swedish Stridsvagen m/38. There are some other small detail changes but that is for another thread.
The Toldi II tank has a different turret and is the main difference between the Toldi I and II models, and is wrong for the Swedish m/38.
