The build sequence is logical and the instructions are in several languages. There are 9 steps and the steps are laid out as 3D graphics. Detail on the outside surface is nice, but they are smooth on the inner surface with an outer lip to stop the kit throwing them off (wheels are fully workable, I suspect this kit is mainly designed as a toy). The tracks are a continuous loop with no sign of a join. The hull MG has a solid barrel and will benefit from a few twists of a fine drill bit.

The main gun tube is hollow at the muzzle end for a couple of millimetres and could be drilled out if desired or a drop of black paint will simulate depth. Mould lines are fine and should clean up with a few passes of the sanding stick where necessary. There is a small amount of flash on some of the parts, but in places it is quite pronounced around the locating pins. Inside are four sprues (A, B and 2xC) with a separate hull tub, set of rubber band tracks, a small decal sheet and a full colour instruction booklet.ĭetails appear crisp.

The kit arrives in a sturdy little side opening box with the usual WWT box art on the top and some info about the game on the back (World of Toons is a game released by the games studio Roqovan). Looked like it would be a nice quick build where I could focus on the fun aspect of our hobby rather than counting rivets and adding aftermarket extras

I’ve never played the game but I have seen reviews of the first couple of Meng Models “Toon” tanks (Sherman and Tiger I) so bought this as a stocking filler a while back. Bored of your usual T-34 kits? Adam Durrant might have something for you…
