Schwerer Panzerspahwagen Kommandowagen/Infanteriewagen w/Crew

The budget-minded Orange Box line from Cyber-Hobby has previously released several railcar kits such as the German Railway Flatbed (Item No.9114), German Railway Gondola (Item No.9115), Schwerer Platformwagen (Item No.9118) and s.Sp. Artilleriewagen (Item No.9120). The Deutsche Reichsbahn (German State Railway) performed a vital role in shuttling supplies, equipment and personnel all across Europe during WWII to keep the German war machine in perpetual motion. Obviously these vital railway lines were vulnerable to attack by sabotage or bombing. It was thus vital to protect railways and trains, and one way of doing that was to provide armored and armed railcars.

Orange Box’s latest release offers a new vehicle that will complement modelers’ train convoys and ensure safety of their railway tracks! This is a 2-in-1 Schwerer Panzerspähwagen kit, this German name translating as “Heavy Armored Reconnaissance Vehicle.” Modelers have the choice of making an Infantry version able to carry troops, or a Command version fitted with a characteristic frame antenna on the turret. Modelers can choose which version they prefer. For those wishing to obtain this unique kit at a modest price, this Orange Box set is the answer. The kit is also accompanied by a figure set. As per other railway-related releases, this set comes with a ready-made piece of railway track with embankment.

Models are supplied unpainted and assembly is required.
