Traditionally it only appeared before noon (local time), unless you were a television programme etc that was shown after noon.

I remember Richard Dimbleby talking about it.

This will get rushed to mould making before the 88 right? As I can see lots of demand for this kit...

Photoshop.
Look at the shading on the barrels.  Identical.
There wouldn't be any room for the crew inside the turret.
I'm sure if I look through a couple of books I may find the original photo.

Hey, I know this tank!
It is clearly a Panther Ausf PS

Spoiler alert:
PS stands for Photoshop.

I hope producing models of real tanks hasn't become boring!

We just have to make sure we keep them entertained.
