Italeri (And Warlord) Sd.Kfz 234/2 Puma [28mm]

Here's a video about a delightful 8-wheeled scout vehicle, the Sd.Kfz 234/2 Puma.
This model is pretty decent. Probably the best from Italeri that I've seen so far. There's a lot of nice detail in the suspension gear. Not so visible in regular use, but it's there...
I now have two of these, so I'm going to have to pick two ways to paint them. It's just not interesting enough to paint them both the same way!
Let me know what you think of this excellent little plastic puma in the comment section below!

I'm a little sad that you have been around 5 YEARS and you only have 10k subs. I feel like you should have WAY more. You are a quality youtuber.

[@thetourettesgamer8851]

Jordyn Collier that he is

[@thetourettesgamer8851]

I have personally never had any issues with italeri and I think that they make some fantastic kits.

[@e-4airman124]

this is the best show on how to assemble the pain in the ass puma

[@chriso8733]

Thank you, I was having a hard time seeing how the instructions wanted me to put the suspension together. You made it simple and clear.

[@RoadWarrior_John]

WHAT NO BACK VIEW OF THE BOX, I'm leaving. (Makes a dramatic exit) (Quietly sneaks back in, to watch the rest of video)

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

Looks pretty good Herbert

[@shawntester4297]

Thank you! I just purchased this model and am building it now. Your video is a huge help.

[@JackIsMe1993]

The Sonderkraftfahrzeug series are damn sexy!

[@andraslibal]

Looks great :)

[@e-4airman124]

it is a pain in the ass to assemble

[@damascussteel2872]

I love your videos man

[@sos_legio_primus9177]

With very little modding you could turn the hull down into a cool 28mm armoured moon buggy Ute.

[@ModelMinutes]

Pretty cool kit ☺️

[@jordyncollier919]

At first, I wasnt sure this was you. But then I saw the emoji and was like: That's exactly how he talked on Instagram when I sent him my model pics. Cheers, mate. Glad to see you support other youtubers!

[@ModelMinutes]

Jordyn Collier it’s nice to see what other people do. We’re a community, not competitors 😂

[@jordyncollier919]

@@ModelMinutes that's very true. I got an interesting proposition for my highschool today. A teacher, knowing who I am, suggested a modeling club. What do you think?

[@ModelMinutes]

Jordyn Collier sounds like a cool idea, I never had that when I was at school

[@Mishn0]

I just finished the 1/72 version of the Italeri Puma. It's on the discord server if you want to see it. This bigger kit has nicer suspension but the rest of the 1/72 is as good or maybe a little better than this one.

[@ytwos1]

It looks very good. Shapes are spot on, nice detail. Why do you use so much glue?

[@HerbertErpaderp]

Mostly so the parts stay together.

[@pbeccas]

Eastern staters say puma funny.

[@trekanbelluvitsh]

This kit looks great. Good video about it.
But no view of the back of the box!
Buhuhu...
Ah... just kidding. :-)

[@L1DZRU]

Oh hello remember me from tiwich😊

[@chonktiger2632]

poo-ma

[@adrianwilliams6908]

So where do you stand on numbered parts again? I couldn't work it out 😀

[@danisCreep]

anybody know there find REAL MEASUREMENTS of hull and turret? (height, wide, long). wikipedia info sucks - he measure bumpers, spare wheels, optics, guns, mirrors, hatch - idk. 4 exemplars saved and all info its measure with guns

[@petepan82]

Never sick of that joke

[@plesmem]

What is 28mm scale?

[@Mishn0]

The "mm" scale nomenclature refers to how many millimeters tall a model figure would be assuming the figure represented a 1.6ish meter tall person. In the case of 28mm scale, it's about 1:56.

[@theveeker6483]

Kind of looks like HALO's Warthog...

[@lukaslibar7615]

First

[@user-dn1iu3cz9l]

Too small scale.

[@kommodore6691]

It is for playing 28mm war games, it is that scale on purpose.

[@StalkeraBg]

David Pellegrini is it generally sturdier than 1/35 tho ?
Im considering ordering few kits with my 1/72 from PSC and ignoring 1/35 as im afraid of breaking- stuff get moved around every few weeks here.
