Hobby Boss 1/35 Sd.Kfz.222 First Series Model Summary

The Hobby Boss 83815 kit models the German Sd.Kfz.222 Leichter Panzerspahwagen at 1/35 scale, focusing on the vehicle's external architecture and characteristic turret profile. The kit is intended for modellers interested in historically grounded builds.

Operational Use and Model Fidelity

The Sd.Kfz.222 was employed in reconnaissance roles where mobility mattered. This first-series reproduction captures the vehicle's external details and proportions to aid authentic finish work and accurate representation.

Construction Notes and Collecting Appeal

Components are injection plastic and require glue for assembly, making the kit better suited to those with some modelling experience. Finished, the model serves well as a standout piece in a 1/35 collection or as part of a period diorama.
