BB078
First Legion
Not yet released - expected in late December.
The German Hetzer Tank Destroyer played a notable role in the Battle of the Bulge, where it was used to ambush Allied forces due to its low profile and powerful 75mm PaK 39 gun. Its compact design allowed it to hide in forested or urban environments, making it effective in defensive operations against the advancing Allies. The First Legion model of the Hetzer is a superb representation of this formidable vehicle, capturing the details of its distinctive armored chassis, sloped armor, and realistic camouflage. With exceptional craftsmanship, it showcases the Hetzer's combat effectiveness during the battle, making it a must-have for collectors and WWII enthusiasts alike.
The model is made from a mixed media (resin, metal, plastic, brass, photo etch, etc...) and has the following features:
- Gun Barrel Raises/Lowers
- 2 Top Hull Hatches Open/Close
- Antenna (not shown)
- Extremely High Quality Painting and Weathering
