👍 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.
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.
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.
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.
