Given all the (wasted) plastic for paper panzers, it's nice to see some holes in the REAL German ATV catalog filled.

I don't know if I have ever seen an armored Protze, and I assume that Bronco has it right. Seems odd that the seats are way out back and they didn't leave the bed open for the gun crew. Looks like pads for the crew on the top of the cargo bed for firing positions. Just seems like a weird design. Is this Bronco's first Protze?

They did the Sdkfz 247 (kit CB35095). There's an unarmored and maybe towing?? a 3.7 Pak 36 (kit CB35133) which I don't think has been released yet and I can't tell if it includes the option of mounting it. On the internet there's at least one photo of an unarmoured protze with a flak drilling which would be cool but I can only call this a wish since there's nothing from Bronco on it.

What a cool vehicle, it looks very "Mad Max" and while I think that it was probably a one-off, its still a valid build. Gonna have to think about this one.
