questions on the FOB french tank (1 Viewer)

[nicolas]

I was looking at the K&C flyer regarding the field of battle. and i noticed something weird, the tank operater isn't the same as the one i purchased... Also the tank has different markings. In the flyer it has a Huge 45 on the side, and on mine that number isn't there...

Does anybody know why|? Has there been a variance?

Easy answer Nicolas, there are two versions FOB9 and FOB10, the FOB9 has the large numbering on it. I have both and I will be keeping them for a very long time. Go to http://www.toysoldiersusa.com Bill Sager has a great site with all the pictures of most of the releases.

When was it released?

The tank commanders are different and FoB 10 has very small numbering on it. The FoB 009 has the number "4". I haven't seen the number "45" one so that could be a variation. Are you sure it was that number and not "4"?

 

[nicolas]

can't remember so "4" might be right.

Assuming that's the case, that's FoB 009. I actually prefer the other scheme but I think both are tremendous tanks.
