Review - Old Glory Panzer 38T

My Son Jake received one of his Christmas Presents late this year. He is building a Flames of War Early War Army and wanted to field Rommel's 7th Division. One of the interesting features of this division was its high use of captured Czechs tanks, which the Germans called the Panzer 38(t)

I ordered these from the War Web. www.warweb.com  they took a while to get here but the price was right. We bought 3 packs of 3 tanks at a little over 13 bucks a pack! Compare that to the 12.50 for one tank from Battlefront and they are already looking pretty good!

Overall these sculpt are pretty good. The are all metal and come in 8 pieces.
Assembly is pretty straight forward and didn't present any challenges.
