Perhaps I'm wrong but I thought Scotia tanks were ordered individually.

The description of the thin barrels as a spider web makes me think CinC.

And the crispness of detail on models that are 20+ years old also make the argument for CinC

Scotia in the US (from Simtac, back in the day) were sold in blister packs.

The presence of a search-light on the M60s would suggest that they are A1 models and not A3s. Most of the A3 models had tank thermal sights so did not need a searchlight.

Aha! So these are most likely Scotia Micromodels' UM0043 – M60A1.

Wow 1/300. Good work. I don't think my eyes could take it.

Yeps..Onomarchos beat me to it. You could use them as A3 passives, but they were rare as most A3's had TTS.

Don't worry about "professional paint jobs" Bill. If it makes you happy that's all that counts…
