Interesting facts, Paul's commander helmet never shown in the animation but R. Brown did wear the commander helmet in the animation. Paul attain the rank of colonel in the animation but Imai print lieutenant in the art box, instruction and model kit. Paul's 1/12 scale early prototype was color in Gloss Silver instead of Gloss Pale Green. Imai also set Paul as left handed. Reissue version reprint as "Paul" instead of "Poul". Nevertheless, IMAI did a good job in issuing this model kit.
