Sd.Kfz. 251/21 ”Drilling” & T-34 Bergepanzer with 2 cm ”Drilling”

Sd.Kfz. 251/21 ”Drilling” & T-34 Bergepanzer with 2 cm ”Drilling”
conversion sets in 1/72

Name Sd.Kfz. 251/21 ”Drilling” /Item.No. AC7205/ & T-34 Bergepanzer with 2 cm ”Drilling” /Item No. AC7206/

Producer Kora Models, Czech Republic

Packing carton box with color picture on the top

Type of kit resin and etched parts + grouting points for barrels /wooden rod in T-34 set/

Quality Conversion set Sd.Kfz. 251/21 is designed for Hasegawa kit Sd.Kfz. 251 D but can be used also for ESCI /Italery/ ”C” because the first ”21s” were born mounted on older vehicles in filed workshops. Set T-34 Drilling is designed for all 1/72 scale T-34 kits available on market /AER, EE and Revell. Nevertheless I would recommend Revell kit because of ”late” wheels that obtain on original vehicle. Both sets include same resin parts of MG 151, etched sheet with gun shield and armored extension and two grouting points for barrels. T-34 set includes resin case with accessories and nice wooden rod for beam. All resin parts are well cast with no any bubbles and only little fine flesh on few parts. The only one problem you will have to solve during assembly of this kit is how remove massive sprues. Etched sets are very nice but ”universal” it means you will have to cut some parts of armored extension to get is shorter according to instructions! The grouting points can simply be a 15 mm as well as 20 mm version barrels because of is minimal dimension difference in scale. Be careful when you will cut them in part according to instructions because they are really sharp! Wooden rod included in T-34 set has realistic color so you don’t need to paint it!

Instruction sheet Graphic assembly instructions with Czech/English/German instructions how to work with the resin kits and painting and marking guide.

Decals no

General Impression & Note The first look into both boxes is very good. I suppose that the assembly of described conversions will be simple and they will fit well on base kits. The results should be nice models of late war AA version of Sd.Kfz.251 and unique captured T-34 armed with triple MG 151.
T-34 ”Drilling” is really rare filed modification. I suppose only one existed serving in SS-Jagdpanzer Abt. 561 in 1945 according to reference article I have found in older Modell-Fan magazine.

We would like to thank Kora Models for free sample sets!
