How about we try one of those "old school" OG Tamiya 1/48th kits from 2007? Is there any difference in quality, or were they ahead of their time?
Crusader is one of their early releases. It could be a downsized Italeri 1/35 kit, because Tamiya is known for doing that with some of their other releases (M-13/40 and Panzerkampfwagen 35t), but then it was definitely refined and refurbished, because everything has beautiful crisp molding and the kit just falls together... like a dream!

Disclaimer: Most of the weathering products I use in my videos such as Ammo by Mig Jimenez, AK-Interactive, Wilder and VMS were sent to me for free, but with no obligations to promote them. I received a lot of them a long time ago, even before I started this channel. VMS is also one of my Patreon supporters. Being independent from big and exclusive sponsorship deals and showing you a wide variety of different brands and products was one of the founding ideas of this channel and I will always stand by this.
