Not much to burn on a big stone arch, but a "broken" model seems appropriate.

FWIW, the Reichstag did suffer additional damage during WW2, and for many years the central dome wasn't replaced. After German unification, the original dome was replaced with a clear glass one.

Given the famous Soviet film of Russian troops raising the red banner over the ruins of the Reichstag, it seems like a major oversight by 1C if they didn' include a destroyed model.

I guess I'll have to go and virtually bomb Berlin to make sure. . .
