These are plastic model sets that require assembly and painting. They do not contain paints and glues unless otherwise stated.

This is a re-issue of the classic 1/35 scale model kit of the Churchill Crocodile, a flame-thrower variant of the Churchill Mk.VII infantry tank named for the famous British Prime Minister. It retained the 75mm gun of the standard Mk.VII, replacing the front machine gun with a flame-thrower, and towing a trailer containing fuel and compressed nitrogen; it had a flame throwing range of 82 meters. Around 800 were produced during WWII, and their destructive power was particularly harnessed in support of U.S. infantry, as American forces did not have a flame-thrower tank of their own.

Decals Included
Total length with trailer attached to tank: 340mm.
This kit can also be assembled to recreate the standard Churchill Mk.VII infantry tank.
Realistic horizontal and vertical movement is provided by the joint between tank and trailer.
Trailer maintenance hatch can be assembled in open or closed position, and interior details such as valves and tanks are partially recreated.
