Formed in February 1942 in Scotland the Polish 1st Armoured Division was under the command of General Stanislaw Maczek. On August 1st 1944 the last segment of the Polish 1st landed in Normandy. Despite being mistakenly bombed by a US air raid and put under heavy artillery fire by the Allies the Polish forces achieved several major victories. The Polish Armoured help close the Falaise Gap and for 2 days and short of ammunition they stood their ground against several fleeing panzer divisions.

BRC&W Cromwell

Introduced in 1943, the British Cromwell Tank was designed by the Birmingham Railway Carriage and Wagon Company as a replacement for the Crusader. Not as well armed as the German Tiger or Panther, the Cromwell relied on its superior agility and speed, supplied by a powerful Meteor engine and Christie suspension. The boxy turret at the center of the Cromwell's hull held the main gun, which was complimented by two anti-infantry machine guns, one mounted in the turret and the other in the bow. More than 4,000 Cromwells were produced during WWII, including variants with 57mm guns, AA guns, 75mm guns and 95mm Howitzers.

Hobby Master's 1:72 scale Cruiser tank is constructed with a blend of diecast metal and plastic, with plastic used to achieve maximum detail and a discreet internal weight added for a heavy feel. The 360 degree rotating plastic turret features simulated armor plates with large bosses and a pivoting metal cannon. The lower portion of the hull is constructed in diecast metal with the top in plastic, which allows for fine details such as panel hinges, equipment and tools and delicate shield guards over the front headlights. Variants in the series include the early Centaur models and later Cromwells with a variety of main cannon.
