just arrived today. The gun well the tube is a 2 parter. And here was something that chapped me . the muzzle brake/deflector at the end. you have to drill out the holes in it. So this is one tank that is screaming for a metal gun replacement. The rest looks pretty good. The tracks are mainly individual links, but there is a long secton which i guess is slotted for the bottom
Despite disappointment over the gun tube...i am glad to have one of these in my collection

That's what jumped out at me as well, it's also soft in detail so it will have to go. That said, it's nice that both the long and short muzzle were included. And it will look great when completed.
