THE KIT:
Pelta-R.P.M. is an old prolific plastic model kit manufacturer that is based in Warsaw, Poland. They make hundreds of plastic model kit subjects in the popular scales.
The kit comes in a very blousy tray and lid type box, that is 5 ¼” too long and is Scotch-taped shut and not shrink-wrapped. The box art is all-white with illustrations of the individual links inside the tanks that they are used on.
Both side-panels of the box say LIMITED EDITION in Polish on one side panel, with kit no. 350001.

Both side-panels of the box say LIMITED EDITION in Polish on one side panel, with kit no. 350001.
The other side panel says LIMITED EDITION, again, and has a square, with CE, an illustration of a man and 12+ indicating the age needed to assemble the track links. Over this is an illustration of a bomb and 224 part which is the number of individual track links in the box.
A second boxing of this kit, also comes in an all-white box, with the same lettering, but with color illustrations of the links as kit no. 35901.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX:
This kit contains 4 chalk-white parts-trees, that are not cello-bagged. Each tree holds 56 parts, for a grand total of 224 parts, as is said on the side panel. I added a balled-up napkin to the kit to fill the big void.

Included is a catalog listing all the different kits in all the popular scales. It is a single-sheet that is printed on both sides and folded twice to fit the box.
The detail on the links is excellent.
