👍 I only mentioned it as you included a photo of Rommel’s 250/3 in the montage at the beginning of your video, I just noticed the fire extinguisher decal...that's a bonus.
It's a disappointing feature of this kit, especially when it's not difficult to make it a workable feature. However, the pivot point could be cut away and re-glued into another position fairly easily.
Rommels radio command vehicle was a Sd.Kfz.250/3. This particular kit is the 250/1. It's not meant to be the radio command version and no, you cannot build that particular version out of the box. You will notice that I mention it because it is a version of the 250. I like all versions of the 250 and it's worth noting that others will always draw comparisons to Rommels vehicle because of it's own widespread popularity.
That's a very nice kit... I need this in my life. Great review, keep them coming!
It is indeed a great kit and I'm looking forward to building it. Sooo many kits, not enough time.😀

It's just one of those things that had to be mentioned because it's so iconic.
Great review Stewart, looks like a great kit.
Cheers Craig. Yes it's a great kit. Certainly excellent value for money given it's under $60 in Australia.
Looking forward to the build 😊
Thanks mate, me too. I need to find some additional figures that interest me and build a diorama with it.
@@BlackHatScaleModels hey stewy, did you get my email ?
Sure did. Just sent you a reply 👍
Thanks for this. I have two on order...
Great Choice. I think it's a great kit. I'm very much looking forward to the build and hopefully you feel the same way once you receive yours.
Need two sets of those tracks! Hope they release them separately.
TRex probably do some in a 3D printed resin. I haven't checked them myself but they may be worth exploring.
Looks like a great kit but the fixed front axel annoys me…I’Ve built both the 8 and 9 versions from Dragon and they have the same fixed axle

Rommel's "Greif" has a different chassis (Z) compared to later Sd Kfz 250....you can't build "Greif" with this kit.
