COBI Historical Collection WWII Panzer III Ausf. J Tank

Panzerkampfwagen III is a German medium tank from World War II. It was the most consistently modified model serving in the army of the Third Reich. Many versions of it were created between 1937 and 1943. The successful chassis served as the basis for the production of other military vehicles. It was a very successful construction, used until the very end of the war. The crew consisted of 5 people. The tank participated in military operations on all European fronts and in North Africa. This time we have prepared a model with operations on the Eastern Front of World War II in mind. The Hungarian army actively supported German troops in the east, which is why the set includes a carefully designed figure of a Hungarian soldier equipped with a two-color rifle, a helmet and a forage cap with prints. The completely new tank model created from COBI construction blocks has many movable elements like an opening hatch, a rotating turret, a movable gun barrel, and rotating wheels and tracks! Noteworthy is the option to build two versions of the tank (2-in-1). Additional elements allow the builder to choose between a long- and short-barreled version of the Panzerkampfwagen III! A large number of detailed prints reflect important details of this vehicle! The service hatch at the rear of the vehicle can be lifted to reveal the brick-built engine. Another advantage of the set is its very solid construction, which faithfully reflects the original shape of its historical inspiration. The model is perfect as part of the collection of history and armor enthusiasts. The set includes the brick tank, a Hungarian soldier figure and a plate with the model name.
