This is another re-release of a
classic from Italeri.
Italeri’s 1/35 scale M47 Patton comes complete with a drop in engine
and transmission, which allows the engine hatches to be posed open,
showing plenty of detail.
The turret has two hatches that can be left open, and there is some
breech detail. Italeri's vinyl tracks are included as well.

There is
an option of three different muzzle types that were used on this
tank.
One figure is also included, made up of seven parts.
There are four decal options, U S Army, German Army, Italian Army
and French Army.
If you are after a quick, simple build, and with the usual Italeri
quality, then this is the kit for you.
