Given the nature of this tank, this 1/35 scale Conqueror from Black Label has brand new parts, none of which are carried over from previous kit subjects. The complex rounded contours of the one-piece turret (which has hatches that can be displayed open or closed) have been carefully reproduced, while the incredibly long gun barrel is made by slide mold. The Horstmann-type suspension, which includes four units on each side (each with two road wheels) and four track return rollers, is accurately depicted too. Meanwhile, the tracks are made of DS for the best blend of detail and convenience. The hull is a one-piece item, and bolt detail throughout the kit is sharply rendered. The Conqueror served from 1955-66, a period that overlaps nicely with the service life of the Saladin Mk.II 6x6 armored car, a subject also available in the Black Label collection. Ambitious modelers could thus produce a British-themed diorama featuring both these Cold War fighting vehicles side by side!
