This is a plastic model that needs assembly. the first model variant to be developed exclusively for the 1/48 scale series, the Sturmgesch tz III Ausf.B is vastly different from its 1/35 Ausf.G counterpart. Model features excellent detailing including accurately detailed sagging tracks, bumpy metal texture on the lower turret, rear exhaust and equipment molded to hull. Die-cast chassis adds extra weight.
