German Tank Engine Soldier Crew

I bought these figures as an accessory for a WW2 truck that I was building. I am pleased with the figures and the level of their detail. The tank engine included in the kit seems a little too simplified. The other items are detailed enough (including a ladder, ,an oil drum, some tools and an (empty toolbox?) The two mechanics are in natural poses and can add a nice touch to a diorama or display.

Got this awhile ago and have been waiting for inspiration to hit me. Didn't want to build a crane as one reviewer suggested. Decided to install the engine and was trying to figure out how to cut out the engine cover without messing my model up. Then came across a panzer model where you had to put the cover on. Eureka I had my chance. This is what I ended up with. Used a few figures from other kits to give support to the mechanics. You only get one engine, not two as the box top implies. It shows two because you can build the engine for a tiger 1/sturmtiger or a panther/king tiger. Am looking for more kits like this as I am getting tired of just battle poses.

I like this one mostly because of the tools you are getting in the box then engine itself. The thing is that engine comes in 2 version, panther and tiger options, but its only top part visible. Its great if you making open hatch and repairmen working on it, but if you want to make cut out view of the tank, get something else. Other than that, its good model.
