Adler Kfz.13

Preliminary remark:
Kitnumber so far not know; the kit will soon be released.

Classification: Quick build kit - 2 kits in a box.

The kit comes in a cardboard box (folded type).

The kit contains:
- A plastic bag with 2 identical sprues, with a size of 17 by 12 cm; every sprue contains 26 parts for the vehicle.

The examples I have received did not have sinkholes or flash.
Ejector marks were on the inside of the parts (where they will be invisible after construction).
There is no misalignment of the parts.
The fighting compartment of the vehicle has interior details.
The included MG is very finely moulded.
The chassis is casted in 2 parts – bottom with frame and fenders and a very thiny engine and cardan with a leaf spring suspension.
There are no tools on the fenders.
The wheels contains 2 parts: in- and outside.

Casting quality is high class; all parts are very sharp and highly detailed for a “Quick Build” kit.

Diameter wheel: 11 mm

Instruction Manual:

Conclusion:
For a “Quick Build” kit this model is high class and casted to a high standard.
It is to be recommended kit for many modelers. My compliments to S-Model.

My thanks to S-Model for the preview sample of this kit.
