Please do not scale the model from 1:25 to 1:24, the actual scale of the model is 1:25...
If you change the scale, the set will appear as a new set, though it is a rebox...

As I wrote at the other new kit:
It's written 1/24 on the box and so it is to add here. Doesn't matter, what the older issues are. There is no choice.
Feel free to add a comment on the kits but they have to be changed to that, what's written on the box.
Btw: the UN Bus or the camper by Revell Monogram are also described with 1/24 on the box.

Thanks for the information, now I will know what to do in such a case. I chose 1/25 scale precisely because the older sets were chosen as 1/25. And no one has changed this before.

I know. It's a little curious, why they changed the scale (on the box). I had both Dump Trucks and (for sure) there are the same sprues in the box. I would have been wondered when there are differences.
I ask myself basically, why there are to different scales at all.

I think Revell wrote 1/24 scale because that's what it said on the UN bus.

I guess this is the "correct" family?

I have a special "hidden" field allowing to override the scale on the box and correct it to the correct scale of the "family"
I overrided all "1:24" items of the T3 to 1:25 family
Please let me know if I missunderstood

I think you misunderstood it. The point is, that some kits have written 1/24 *on the box* and a hand full have 1/25.
It's strange because the content is still the same. But to follow the "rules" of scalemates, they have to be differentiate into two scales. Sadly.
