With my collection CS00455 came with the dots but CS000457 did not & I know Mitch tank was the same , thought this would of been brought up by now
 
CS000457 is a Porsche turret model. They were the first 50 King Tigers produced in early to mid 1944. The Ambush pattern was introduced in August 1944 so it is unlikely that Porsche King Tigers were painted in an ambush pattern which was usually factory applied. I would say the model is historically correct but the advertising photo is not a good representation of the model.
