On its way from AFV Club is a great looking German half-track mounting a short barreled 7.5cm.

I'd like to see the interior detail of the ammo box. Does anyone know AFV Club's track record on ammo stowage and detail?

This does look nice. I like the AFV Club 251 series and I am fascinated by vehicles mounting the short 7.5cm gun. Looks like another to add to the wish list.

Hi Kevin,

It looks good and very well detailed. I like the cannon and the interior.

Agree to put him in the wish list...

Good to see they have a proper pedestal mount, unlike what Dragon did on their 250 halftrack.

Actually some folks at the Dutch Twenot-forum pointed out this vehicle has the same, wrong mount as Tamiya's D had.
It should be open, not closed up.
