I know I often comment on the paint, weathering and dio, but take those away and you still have some serious modeling chops at the core.

Thanks Chris, I've often had that same thought, but as bad as that aspect was there were many good qualities
to the Churchill, such as exceptional obstacle negotiation and thick armor.
The chassis was very adaptable to many variations and some pretty famous ones too, the Crocodile being only one.

Jim.
