This
conversion set is designed for both Revell Pz.IV kits.
It includes completely new upper part of the hull,
armoured sides and parts for 3,7 cm Flak 43 gun all well
moulded and perfectly cast of resin. You just have to
cut parts of sprue blocks and clean fine resin film that
covers some of them.
The detailed barrel of the gun turned form brass came form Shatton production. I would personally welcome also etched basket for cartridges but I can't have everything. Anyway I'm not sure is all Möbelwagens have it.:-) |
Instruction sheet | simple graphic instructions |
Decals | not |
General Impression & Note |
According my opinion
this set is very well done. It let us make best of good Revell plastic kits
and build nice model of AA tank using this conversion set. The parts and the instructions shows that only tank can be built with armoured sides in "transport - closed" position only. Germans produced totally 240 /other source tells 205 only/of these Flakpanzers since spring 1944til end of the war and they were delivered mostly to SS units. Interesting is that final assemblage of "Möbelwagenù" was done in Prague! |
