The ROCO model I do wonder about. From images I've seen, the thing looks a bit like some of the really early marks, which seemed to lack that more well-known characteristic shape of turret front. But as it is a smaller scale, some kind of compromise was called for. Now all I have to do is find a couple more of these things (Leopards, too). :-)Archduke Piccolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15533325665451889661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6650770985225450559.post-85319141424776436942013-11-05T14:27:15.255-08:002013-11-05T14:27:15.255-08:00The Leopard looks pleasingly disreputable!
