There have been many questions and much speculation about what our next vehicle for our WWII range might be. Well, let's put an end that right now - it will be a Panzer III Ausf. J Late Version. Frank wanted one and because we like him, we whipped this up for him! (not really, but hopefully it will make him feel good!)
The images shown here are pre-production images and are unfortunately missing several detail parts (photo etch parts, stowage configuration, bipod mount under the AAMG, struts, tow cable, spare tracks, crew figure, etc. etc.). So please bear in mind before you make any comments that we're well aware of what it's missing and all of this has of course been rectified. However, I'm confident enough in the quality of the model at this point to comfortably show it and know that even in these dated images, it's the best toy soldier rendition of the Panzer III ever created. Sure, it's lightweight and that won't please some, sure it's more expensive than if it were polystone and no doubt some will take shrimp off the barbie and come out and say so, but we're pretty confident that it speaks for itself and that anyone who orders it will be ecstatic with their purchase. We hope to make this available late April with a pre-order in March sometime.
As usual, full bodied crew figure in the vehicle or the ground, opening and closing commanders hatch, fully rotating turret, antenna raises and lowers, gun that raises up and down, etc.... All that youve come to expect from our groundbreaking vehicles.
So without further adieu, here it is and we hope you like it.
Best,
Matt
