Well moulded soft plastic model made by Tamiya in 1/35 scale. It has been updated over the years with new figure sprues but model remains the same as when it was first cast in 1976. Now uses green plastic rather than the desert sand of the original 1976 model. I actually obtained the model to convert to another carrier type used by the BEF in 1940. Reasonably priced and still builds into a presentable model kit.

I bought the kit as my old mates said that it was a good thing for them . The kit was too hard to get it togerther ,as it was difficult to see , as the plastic was all black. The tracks were put together using a cocktail stick !! Old age , is my excuse .

Purchased this for my grandson, to show him what his great-grandfather fought in during WW2. It's a pity that the decals supplied weren't of the 11th armoured division of which my father's unit was part of. Some parts are a bit fiddly , but instructions are easy to follow. If Tamiya ever produces a 1/25 scale of this carrier of the same quality, I would purchase it.

just a change from the modelers prospective and the temptation to improve details ,but all in all a good kit from Tamiya

A superb model kit despite its small size ( obviously, according to its real size ) that honors any model kit builder. Above all, the kit has decal variants not for ETO but for North Africa campaign !
