Grey Panzer II (1 Viewer)

[katana]

The Panzer II is a 1/24 scale model by Tasca. The model is quite detailed and has tracks made from individual links. The figures are from several manufacturers. The Panzer Kommander is from TCS and comes with the Hetzer. The standing Panzer Officer with camo trousers is from K&C. The standing Panzer Officer in black with side cap is a 1/25 scale figure from Tamiya as is the Unterofficer in the helmet with MP-40. I find it interesting that the Tamiya figures and the K&C figures are very similar in proportions and height; within the range of human norms. The Tamiya figures are 70mm tall. The K&C figure is 68mm tall from the top of the base. The tamiya figures came with a 1/25 scale Jagdpanther I am still in the process of painting. Please let me know your opinion of how the different figures and the Panzer II work togather.

Thanks Wayne. I posted the Grey Tiger I just for you. A match for your Tamiya T34-85. Let me know what you think.

I purchased mine on Ebay for $60.00. The kit is state of the art. The individual track links are connected with wire pins. No figure is provided; but the K&C Panzer Kommander figures work as well as the TCS figure I use.

I watched a kit review video on it...Very detailed indeed...I was a big model/figure builder until my eyes started getting bad...Haven't done a kit in long while...your thread enticed me...I may give this a go since i was doing 1/35 before...
I really like the way it looks in regards to the TS's in scale...Also always really liked the Pzkpfw II , early blitzkrieg !!

You certainly do like the Panzer II. Quite a collection. I too used to build 1/35 scale armor; as my eyes aged I moved to 1/25, 1/24 and 1/16 I have an old Bandai 1/24 scale Porsche King Tiger with interior detail that is really nice. 1/24 is very easy to build compared to 1/35. You will be very pleased with the Tasca.
