Here is a tank set I found @ Lycan Airplanes in the same type of box:

21st Century Toys WW2 Stuart tank with 4 Italian enemy soldiers. This livery was released exclusively in Target stores under their store brand "Four Star Military" in 2008.

Target sold 21st century 1/32 fw190, p-51b, the marders, and a couple of the playsets under the Four Star Packaging. This was about a year before they went under.

I remember. I purchased everything they offered and some more when they went to the clearance aisle. 2008, how time flies...

Yeah, one of 21c's aborted attempts to save themselves... Unimax FOV line was still prominent at Target at the time, so it didn't really help 21c's case. The same 32x FW-190 and "Double Nuthin" P-51D were also sold at Wal Mart under the regular 32x brand around the same time. I have the Sherman and troops set, some gun crew figures, and a Panzer 38T in the "4 Star" packaging. Given that these are overall more rare than the standard 21c items, hey are in the part of my collection that I don't open...
