I'm building a Cromwell... A Tamiya 1/48 Cromwell Mk IV. to be exact. Lovely.
Really nice image on the box. It's a very 'tank' looking tank. I like the cromwell design. I think the turret reminds me of the Churchill which I also like.
The end panels show the information you need to make your choice. You can see the product code if you want one yourself. A repeat of the box artwork showing a tank in green.

I love these 1/48 kits. They are excellent value. (And a good size if your house is a bit titchy.)
The side panel showing the die cast hull and a completed model in... green...
The grey low viz camo on the bottom is effective. I've not seen a model finished in that scheme yet.

I love this bit. Opening the box for the first time, not knowing what we are going to find inside. Surprisingly, we have a tank model in this one.
There's always a goodly amount of plastic in a kit like this.

Wheels and tracks.
Die cast hull. It gives everything a good weight feel. I do like the weight addition.
