Is the variety of colours indicative of anything? What year they were made/sold, for example, or sun damage? I actually think it looks quite good, adds some variety to the group.
ReplyDeleteTanks were made by a Soviet Union company that did not seem to care about the color of the plastic. Each batch seemed to be a little different.

Thanks for answering.
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad it comes down to quality control, but I still think it's somewhat cool to see that little bit of variation. Although I suppose on parade they would (and should) appear much more uniform.
I have a number of other tanks by Mir and they are all that way. My intention was to show tanks on parade to the front, so perhaps some variation would be more likely.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading.
