I purchased a Flames of War box of the German Panzergrenadier Headquarters. In the box you get a bunch of resin, plastic and metal.
It’s a challenge though to see what goes where and on which bases which models go. I do think that there needs to be either better instructions in the box, or at least a good and explanatory guide on the Flames of War website. This is not the first or last model from Flames of War that has left me confused about what is what and where it goes on the model. It’s not even entirely clear about which infantry go together or clear instructions on how to base them.

Having said that once you know what goes where, the half tracks go together quite easily, though for some reason I got some super glue “ghosting” on the model.

The machine guns and gun shields were quite fiddly and do feel quite delicate.

I still need to add the main frontal armament, any crew and the crew equipment.

One thing I do like about FoW models is that in this set you get three different half track hulls rather than three of a single mould.

Here is one of the SdKfz 251s with a Tiger 1 E tank.
