New 251 (1 Viewer)

]Although I am waiting another month for the PZ 4. I pulled the trigger on the 251 (before they sell out) and it is outstanding. Took on a few pics. But I will try to make a small set up later. Outstanding halftrack by the way.

It's such an iconic WWII vehicle and the First Legion is superb. I recall Matt saying they were difficult so I wonder if that means we won't see a winter or desert version.

I'm holding out for a Normandy 251^&confuse

Agreed Frank. The detail is amazing. Like the stowage on it. My only question is the driver has what appears to be blue shoulder boards? I thought it would be Pink for Panzer troops. What would the blue designate? Or maybe my eyes are bad.

I didn't look that close

I guess the thought process is since he drives the vehicle he falls under "vehicle Troops. I buy that.

The Sd. Kfz. 251 is the Panzergrenader vehicle par excellance! The First Legion model looks very good. I have a Minichamps which has a superb summer camo pattern; which First Legion would do well to emulate! Even the engine compartment opens. I wish I could shrink my 21st Century 1/18 Sd. Kfz. 251 down to 1/30 it also has a lot of great details. Looks good towing a PAK 40.

Opps, And forgot to say thanks for posting the Link Frank. Very much appreciated. And keep those awesome dioramas coming. I have said it before. Your dioramas are what get me interested in FL.

I hope not difficult enough to do DAK versions (command and the standard 251) as well as the Normandy versions. It would be disappointing if he didn't do those theatres of war.

I was nervous and thought if I waited it might be sold out. Glad I bought it. It is outstanding!
