OSTFRONT: THE EasterN PUSH/OPERATION BARBAROSSA - WINTER 1943-1944, PANZER V \'PANTHER\' MODEL A - LIMITED EDITION
YOU KNOW EVERY NOW & THEN YOU RUN ACROSS SOMETHING YOU PUT AWAY & FORGOT YOU HAD IT. THIS LITTLE PANTHER\'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS. IT\'S A FINE MODEL, SOMEWHAT RARE & HIGHLY POPULAR AMONG CORGI COLLECTORS. LIKE ME. IF YOU\'RE NOT A CORGI COLLECTOR GO LOOK AT SOMETHING ELSE. FORCES OF VALOR JUNK - OR 21ST CENTURY, THEY HAVE SOME NICE 1:48 SCALE PLASTIC YOU MIGHT LIKE.
NEVER MIND. THE POINT IS AS WE GET FARTHER AWAY FROM CORGI\'S DISCONTINUED ARMOR THE HARDER THEY ARE TO GET.
THIS IS THE EARLY PRODUCTION PANZER V/PANTHER. AS YOU NO DOUBT KNOW THE PANTHER WAS CREATED TO DEAL SPECIFICALLY WITH THE RUSSIAN T-34. AND THE ARGUMENT\'S STILL ON OVER WHICH OF THOSE TWO IS THE BEST TANK OF THE WAH. (I VOTE FOR THE T-34.) BOTH ARE STYLISTICALLY GORGEOUS, BUT FOR BEAUTY I\'LL PIN THE MEDAL ON THE PANTHER. THE T-34\'s TOO TACTLESSLY RUSSIAN LOOKING. YOU KNOW, TOO BLUNT LOOKING.
CORGI MADE A LOT OF WONDERFUL PIECES BEFORE THEY QUIT THE TANK BUSINESS, BUT TOO MANY OF THEM WERE LIMITED EDITION PIECES. THIS, LIKE ALL THEIR OPERATION BARBAROSSA STUFF, IS AN LE. I\'VE GOT TWO. ONE\'S DISPLAYED. THIS ONE\'S MY SPARE. I\'VE DECIDED TO sale IT OFF. I\'VE HAD IT FOR YEARS. IT\'S NEVER BEEN TAKEN FROM ITS BOX OR DISPLAYED UNTIL TODAY, HAD TO SHOOT FOTOS.
