T26 - Which models have I got?

[fulcrum]

I appear to have got 2 different models of T26.

The painted one is, I believe an SV58 purchased within the last 6 months.  The unpainted one is from a blister pack labelled T26 and purchased at Cannon yesterday.

The unpainted one is about twice the bulk of the other.

The painted one is their first T-26, probably from the Russian range. The unpainted one most likely from the SCW range and relatively new. I have the former as recognise it's more squat shape and lack of gun at the back.

I'll have to get back to you on this one, as I need to check with Dave.  We had the original T-26, which was a little on the small side.  When we had the Vickers designed, the hull was a better size, so we used it for the T-26 as well.  Then to add further confusion, we had the turret changed slightly as well.

I'll get back to you on this when Dave gets to the unit after work.

Yep, just to confirm, the model was replaced with the better sized one a short while back.  If you'd rather have the smaller one again, let me know and we'll get some replacements sent out.
