This is an old model dating back to the mid 1970s. To put that in perspective, I was 17 years old when I first built the Chieftain and now I'm 61 so I've just built another one. Its still very nicely moulded, with no flash present and about as accurate as its possible to be. Evidence that this model was originally motorized is still there on the lower hull in the form of screw and switch holes still present. Many Tamiya tanks from this era were sold as motorised but rarely worked as they were supposed to, if at all, so not having this feature is no loss and keeps the cost down. There are no photo etched or resin detail components supplied but then I don't think this model needs any. Newer Tamiya tanks in this scale costs about double or even more. That makes this model good value for the money. Its a good model for the beginner or expert modeller and builds into a fine model.
