How to justify the purchase of the re-released set 2475 "M-10 Wolverine" when you already own the predecessor? The re-release doesn't really offer much improvement over the previous model, in fact is is actually a regression, because the re-release omitted some acessories: The old model had a towing cable and a jerrycan attached to the side armor panels, whereas the re-release has none of that anymore. So why buy the re-release then? Because by using just 3 additional pieces to add a nozzle to the gun barrel, you turn the standard 3-inch gun M7 into the British Ordnance QF 17 pounder anti-tank gun, and voila, you have another tank type for your ever expanding tank collection :-) Well, to keep things a little bit more interresting, I also added frontal mudguards, and brought back the accessories around the tank: spare wheels, tools, towing cable, track links, jerrycan, ... Oh, and I made some custom british stickers ... and of course used two "Achilles" stickers from Cobi's "World of Tanks" British sticker sheet. The parts for the mudguards (1x4 tile and 2x4 hinge tile) are only attached by one stud each, otherwise it would have blocked the movement of the tracks:
