Nice little tank! I think you can probably play around with some 1x2x1 thinwalls and actually get a minifig in the turret hatch. The Japanese did actually make some nice looking armor, but for some reason I can't fathom, never made it to mass (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jul-02, to lugnet.build.military)
