Designed to be Germany's tank for engaging enemy armor, the Panzer III saw it's successful battlefield debut during the invasion of Poland. It proved to be a reliable and winning design and was continually upgraded and refined throughout the war. The Panzer III's hull and chassis was also used to create the highly successful series of low-profile StuG III assault guns and tank destroyers.
The Panzer III is one of Brickmania's most popular kits and we are constantly making upgrades and improvements. This edition incorporates a lot of upgrades over the previously more austere version. There are "extra" features such the new 1.5 wide Brickmania Track Links, a BrickArms MG-34 on the anti-aircraft mount (in addition to the one in the hull), accessible interior spaces (upper and lower hull sections separate to reveal the interior), and more.
