It's a special edition box concerning the japanese Whippets. The decals sheet is specially interesting, including markings for the first japanes MarkIV too!
The tanks recieved new MG (included), different exhaust cover and usually a mobile driver hatch.
Several pics show the Whippets with 2 or 3 tones camo, sometime outligned with a Black or dark brown color.
日本,イギリス,ドイツ, ロシア軍の塗裝図,デカ一ル付き! = Japanese, British, German, Russian Army decals included
