Two-piece model (hull and turret), hollow bottom. Model measures 3.5 cm long (not counting gun barrel) x 2 cm wide x 2.4 cm high. There is stowage on or between the fenders, and a spare tire on the right side. Turret is a "sloped box," with two co-axial guns ("long" and "short"; flat-ended, not bored).
The wheels are reinforced with extra metal, invisible from most angles unless viewed from the ends at a low angle. The edges of the hull (where facets meet) are sometimes less than sharp, and there are minor surface imperfections which prevent some of the "flat" panels from being perfectly flat, but the model gives a correct impression of the actual vehicle.
Our sample turret had a slight seam, easily fixable. The rear corners and ends of gun barrels could use minor file work to remove attachment points. The turret and hull fit and sit well together, though some filing could improve the appearance by reducing the gap between turret front and hull.
