Panzer IVH: Hand-Painted 28mm Battle Ready Tank - This is a 28mm (1:56) plastic tank, assembled and hand-painted at the factory. Since they are hand-painted, expect minor variations to the published images. Aerials and any mounted machineguns are painted, but left unattached to avoid breakages in transit – you'll have to mount these yourself. The Ausf H includes muzzle brake on the long 75mm main gun and protective schurzen side skirts mounted to the threat posed by Russian anti-tank rifles and Allied bazooka weapons. $64.00 USD
