Happily, it appears that I overstated the juniorization. The only
“juniorized” elements are the turret (with moveable gun) and the one-piece
top surface of the tank’s hull, which is a single, sculpted plate. The rest
of the vehicle is made of bricks, plates, wheels, and treads, though!

Here’s a
picture of a similar design from the pre-merger Cobi Small Army line. You
can see the two main “juniorized” elements.

Yeah I figured that is what you meant. I have been browsing the Cobi website
fairly extensively. That tank is actually pretty nice looking from both a model
and parts standpoint.

Admittedly I am more interested in the awsome figures, but some of Cobi’s
space sets are pretty sweet. It would be nice if they made figure packs
like Best Lock has done previously. (Assuming they sell them here at all of
course)

A further perusal of the Cobi website reveals at least
one
figure-pack that likewise pre-dates the merger, but it gives me hope about
possible future offerings here in North America! You can also see most of
the accessories I mentioned.

Yeah I would love for them to release those fig packs.
Well that answers another question I had. Did you get the jungle or desert
themed box. I was hoping the brown clad figs meant desert and not jungle. Nice
mix of sets and parts. I assume the jungle themed box was similar.
