Dragon announcement for September - 1/72 German Sd.kfz.251/10 w/3.7cm PaK (60294)

Sd.kfz.251/10 Ausf.C w/3.7cm PaK, 60294


Nice. Really. And for all diecast fans (quote) "it features a metal chassis for added durability."

Barcode: 0 89195 60294 7
Packaging: 24 Pieces per master carton
Box size: 6.1"x3.1"x2.8"

Features:
- Open window display packaging
- Highly popular and collectible item
- True to 1/72 scale
- Fully accurate mold
- Fully assembled
- Historically accurate markings and insignia
- Includes protective display case

The Sd. Kfz. 251 halftrack was a highly successful design, with a bewildering array of variants produced during WWII. The 251/10, for example, was a halftrack equipped with a 3.7cm PaK 36 antitank gun. This small-caliber weapon designed by Rheinmetall first appeared in 1936, but by the time WWII broke out it was outdated and ineffective against more heavily armored enemy tanks. Thus, a number of these “door knockers” (as the gun was sometimes nicknamed by German troops) were mounted on the hull superstructure of some German halftracks to provide light and mobile anti-armor support.

Dragon Armor has released a 1/72 scale model of one such vehicle. This Sd.Kfz.251/10 Ausf. C is the first example of this particular variant in the Dragon Armor range, and it features a metal chassis for added durability. The 3.7cm PaK is delicate and well rendered. This sophisticated vehicle is the perfect companion to the standard Sd.Kfz.251/1 half-tracks that have been released previously, and collectors can add extra firepower to their half-track unit.

Now lets wait another year for a france 1944 version of a sdkfz 251

Cool Beans! Fria Frijoles! Finally a half-track with some firepower! I was just watching my DVD copy of Band of Brothers (Caranten and Replacements episodes) on the 4th o' July - there were German halftracks like this, except with bigger guns on them. This'll be sweet!

Dragon has done an outstanding job with their Sd.Kfz 251's, and new versions is really good news!
I'll buy this one for sure!
