First time I got a 28mm version of htis tank (the Brigade Games one in fact) I thought they had mislabelled it and it was actually a 25mm or 22mm model.  Then I saw a real one at the WW1 museum in Kansas City and realized just how small that tank is, compared to what we have today or even what was running around in WW2.

I've had a chance to drive a running one a few times, but at 6'2 and too many pounds I just can't really fit in the thing. That's why its nice to see the real thing once in a while.
