The set includes new turret with commander’s hatch that can be open, new gun, front part of the hull and side plates with round doors. All parts are well fine cast of resin. Of course you will have to remove some fine flash and sprues but it’s not anything complicated. |

General Impression | I think that this conversion set offers chance to simply convert common ESCI kit and get very nice model later variant of known British Churchill tank. |
Note |
Commonwealth units used these vehicles for the
firing time during invasion to France and then during battles in West Europe in
1944-45.
This conversion set is one of the results of kit swap with my American friend Stephen Brezinski. |
