German Hanomag Sd.Kfz. 251/1 Halftrack

I've looked at this one in the Tamiya catalog since Star Wars was in the theaters for the FIRST time! Yes, 1976. I got back in the hobby and this was so cheap that I had to get it and have some fun! Best bang for your buck with all the figures. Note, scribe extra detail into these figures. Bring out the detail before you paint and they will look great! The Hanomag is an ok kit. The fit of the parts is not the best. It's 70's era ok? Running gear road wheels is fiddly. But the front tires are steerable, so that's a plus. The interior is pretty bad. I'm sure there should be seat backs that are missing. The included MG's are horrible by any standards. The tracks are memory lane get our your candle and x-acto knife and melt the pins type.But if you super glue the tracks to the road wheels to give them some sag, they look alright. Value level = must buy! Fit and finish = Vintage, in my day, this was a great kit and we had to walk to school uphill both ways and we liked it! Fun level = no pressure Nostalgia level = awesome
