....... Yep ; Finally , somebody @ FoV took notice & corrected it. :o

* This had been a factory blunder since their 1st release. I used to have to take mine apart & flip the mantlet over to correct it. :roll:


* I had noticed this about the new one straight away , through the window box. :wink: 8)

........ also , did you notice that the tank riders (helmets) are now correctly painted ? ... Unlike in the first , 2nd series Panther pic , you can see their helmets are still painted that faded light blue shade. 8) :wink: :mrgreen:
