I've always liked the Matilda II from my days in World War II Online. Big green slow and armored.
I put together the 2 Matilda II Australian Army resin kits I got from Warlord games. It was not a happy experience :(
The resin on the front does not go well with each other, there appears to be large gaps either side of the front part.
I lost two different headlights :(
I put the commanders cupola lid on upside down. Twice.
The sand shields inside the tracks are metal and all bent :(
Now putting it together IS easy, at least the 4 resin parts. The rest of the tank, no so much. It does not come with instructions and I could not find them - I had to ask on r/boltaction where they are. The one picture is not clear and includes items like mud guards I didn't get(!).
But there were quick to put together. However, they are nearly $20 more expensive than the plastic one on warlordgames.com. They do have a lot of nice detail on them, but I wish the little parts were also part of the resin kit.
I can use them through the entire war - The Russians even had 200 or so left by the time Berlin fell!
I give it a 5/10.
Left one will be the command tank. It does show how small these turrets were, no wonder they couldn't get a bigger gun in there. |
Note the large gaps in the front |
