Just posted, a review of one of Revell (Germany''s) recent (re-)releases - the Char B.1 bis & Renault FT-17 in 1/76th scale. An interesting model for the nostalgics amonst us as well - this is the original Matchbox kit reboxed!

This was one of my favorite Matchbox kits. I still have a couple of the Matchbox issues on the shelf.

Recently bought a couple to go with the original Matchbox ones I still have. Revell appear to have taken the paint schemes from Steve Zaloga's old 'Blitzkrieg' title for A and AP which means that the schemes for the French models are a little suspect compared to the more recent information on Chars Francais.
