This is Meng's release, coming out just after Takom's.
Meng worked closely with The Tank Museum at Bovington during development of the kit, measuring the Whippet on display and having access to original source documents.
First look, the kit is well moulded and nicely detailed. There is no PE included with the kit. Construction consists of 16 steps and looks like it should build up quickly (famous last words).
Two colour schemes are detailed in the instructions, "Firefly" as displayed at the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History in Brussels, Belgium and "Caesar II" as displayed at Bovington. The decal sheet includes additional markings for British tanks "Clara" and "The Musical Box", a captured German Tank and a captured Soviet tank. Additional research will be required if doing any of these bonus schemes.
Cheers,
Rich
