"…This heavy tank was one of the several prototypes put forward as a replacement for the aging T35.

The kit is sealed only in a plastic bag, but it arrived by mail safely packed in a sturdy cardboard box. The biggest part is the hull, which is made in one piece. All wheels, return rollers , front- and rear idlers, tracks, towing hooks etc. are separately. There are also some tools.
All of the casting blocks are already removed, and only minor sanding is necessary. There are only a few air bubbles and only some flash, which can be easily removed. The real vehicle is covered with many rivets, which are perfectly reproduced.

Dimensions:
The correct dimensions are a little bit difficult. The dimensions found on internet are different. When you take the shortest length the model is close to 1/72, but when you take the longest length the model will be more close to 1/76.
Instructions and markings:
There are no decals, and instructions are reduced to a sheet of paper with a photo of the real tank. You may visit the Henk of Holland website, where you can find helpful images of the assembled kit.
Assembly hints:
Read the notes on the enclosed sheet.
Aligning the long line wheels (8units) must be done carefully.
