Today's post is another Panther tank. But a bigger Panther tank! This is a 1:76 Matchbox Panther that I bought about 20 years ago and have finally built and painted.
It's not a great kit, it is limited in detail, the rubber tracks don't fit well (you might be able to make out where they have had to be cut, otherwise they snap the sprocket wheels off) and the transfers backing silver a lot (again you might be able to see this on the turret). I do like the scenic base however, and the model looks ok once finished.
All in all for a beginner kit I started putting together as a teenager, it's fine. I do find it amusing that most 15mm models these days have more detail however, despite being smaller!
