ESCI – 8339 – 8049 – Churchil AMRCR

Description:

Churchill AMRCR

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a British WWII Infantry Tank Churchill Mk.III variant fitted with a mine-roller device named AMRCR (anti-mine reconnaissance castor roller).

This kit is a variant of kit ESCI – 8332 – 8043 – MK IV Churchill with new parts for the AMRCR mine-roller, a not very common device, derived of the previous AMRA and with little evidence of operational use and mainly see mounted on real Mk.IV Churchills. Because that we call this an exhotic variant, ESCI could have choose the more common AMRA.

The kit shares all the good points of the parent kit, the new parts added for the mine-roller device are correct. It also shares the weakest points too, tracks and ejection pins.

This very specific variant never has been re-released by Italeri.
