32520 1/48 GERMAN PANTHERFrom opening the box, you have the usual Tamiya instruction sheet, carefully laid out in short sections and so easy to follow. The metal one-piece hull has a nice weight to it, so the model isn't too light for this medium scale. All options for the 'G' model are reproduced, two different sorts of mantlet, the flame proof exhausts of the later 'G', side skirts and the cabin heater duct over the engine deck and markings for four different units. The track is of the built up variety and fit excellently. The casting on the model is sharp, so none of the detail is lost, it's just as sharp as the larger 1/35th. Budget and space considerations make this an excellent scale to have a fine collection of tanks, lets hope manufacturers expand this range considerably. To sum up, big on detail and small on space!
