Awesome!!! And yes haha if only these models still cost as much as they did back then. ( which was $20-$40 and possibly higher) Now they go for hundreds and it is becoming a very expensive hobby.😅
This is an especially decent replica when you consider these could once be had for $29.99 and can still be found for less than $80.00 I noticed your driver figure is missing those hanging head-set cables (which can easily be replicated/replaced with thin black wire). Your turret escape-hatch is, however, operable. On later issues, the hatch was simply glued shut (at the hinge). By removing the six tiny screws (3 on each side) on the underside of the hull over-hangs (above the wheels) the body can be separated, then the turret assembly can be unscrewed from the hull, then disassembled to gain access to that hatch-hinge to make it operable. With the body separated, the opportunity to add weight to the chassis will add "heft" to this realistic looking WW II German Panther-G tank. Nice review, thanks. @ 3:06 that "tow rope" is actually metal wire (not plastic) and was used to pull new or repaired (heavy) tracks onto to the tank wheels.
