The side skirts of the Tiger were redesigned twice. By the time of the "Early" Tigers which this kit will represent, a simple design with equally sized segments was in use.
Each skirt segment had 4 bolts, equally spaced. There was a smaller gap where the segments met each other.
The skirts on this "test shot" model do not follow exactly the real layout of the bolts, although it has been public knowledge for years. The plastic part has its middle gap larger than the other two.
We can hope that this error will be corrected before release of the kit. But the same problem exists, of course, in the skirt mounting points on the walls of this "test" model. Both would need to be changed together.
