And then there's the diecast 1/50 scale option.
Plusses:
1) You don't have to build it. You may wish to repaint it.
2) It ain't 1/48 so 50% of the punterartii can't say you are wrong
3) It ain't 1/56, which rules out the other half.
4) In a fit of rage, it can be used to cause blunt force trauma to anyone fool enough to tell you it's the wrong scale. Try that with a plastic or resin kit.
Minuses, Solido tracks aren't exactly the most accurate rendering of the actual article but.... when nobody is watching they actually turn, so you can make all the brrmm brrmm and dakka, dakka noises you like as you push your halftrack across the floor.
