Announced by Tristar several years back, we may finally get to see this kit released under the Hobby Boss brand.
The Marder III Ausf. M was the last variant of this tank hunter series. It differed from previous versions by featuring a lower silhouette, sloped armor, and a fighting compartment that afforded better protection to the crew given the space created after the engine compartment was moved to the center of the hull. The Marder III Ausf. M was armed with a 75mm PaK 40 anti-tank gun, and was able to carry 27 rounds of ammunition. It is estimated that more than 900 examples of this variant were built.
Hobby Boss’ Marder III Ausf.M Tank Destroyer Sd.Kfz.138, Late (80168) is a 1/35 plastic kit containing more than 500 parts. The kit features a multi-slide molded lower hull and turret, individual track links, photo-etched details, and a metal gun barrel. As built, this Marder III variant stands at 148.2mm long and 61mm wide.
