With the E.T. Model T-171 set, you can reproduce the characteristic control panels of, for example, American Shermans from World War II, Soviet tanks of the Cold War era, as well as modern armored vehicles of the 21st century. Using the buttons from this set significantly enhances the realism of any model interior—both for historical and contemporary projects.

Unlike mass-market products, these photo-etched details do not include additional items such as metal barrels or resin parts, allowing for independent and creative arrangement of every cockpit or panel. The set is primarily recommended for ambitious intermediate and advanced modelers seeking a unique way to enhance the level of detail in their models. Assembly, rated 2/5, requires caution and precise modeling tools, especially when working in smaller scales.
