An armored half-track tansporter unequivocally associated by everyone with the German army. Sd.Kfz 251/1 Ausf.A has been faithfully reproduced using building blocks. The model has been covered with high-quality durable prints. The prints imitate the equipment and painting of the vehicle from the initial period of the Second World War. The vehicle was equipped with movable wheels with real tires. Tracked traction consisting of realistic brick links works and behaves like a real one when moving the vehicle. Storage compartments, opening rear double doors, machine guns and additional accessories make the transporter more attractive. The whole set is complemented by two characters depicting a mechanic and a technician. These are completely new patterns of figurines that complement the collection. Brick with the name of the vehicle included!
The Sd.Kfz.251 armored personnel carrier is an ideal set for both small and large fans of building blocks. It will work great on both the shelf and the brick diorama. Older fans of bricks will appreciate the model as a collector's piece and inspiration to build realistic dioramas or their own constructions. Slightly more experienced constructors will find in this model a huge field for modification. The German army had a staggering number of 23 official versions of the transporter, designed for very different tasks. You can easily disassemble the rifles and try to create a version of fire support with a gun or a vehicle of technical facilities. 
The Sd.Kfz.251 is the basic half-track armoured personnel carrier of the German Army during World War II. Its production lasted from 1939 to 1945. On its basis, other combat vehicles were also built. It was produced in four production models, from A to D, and 23 basic and many field versions, of which the standard and most numerous was the Sd.Kfz.251/1 armored personnel carrier. The design of the Sd.Kfz.251 transporter was based on a modified Sd.Kfz.11 chassis. The armored hull was produced from welded armored plates and consisted of two large parts connected by screws. The front part ended behind the driver's station. It protected the driver, commander and engine. The combat compartment opened from above was to accommodate 10 soldiers. The rear, large, outward-opening door allowed access to the interior.
