This latest 1/35 Panther Ausf. G Late Production, is a steel wheel version. Steel-rimmed “silent bloc” wheels, which saved on dwindling supplies of rubber, were introduced in very limited number of O-series vehicles from September 1944 onwards. Such steel wheels had been successfully used on Tigers, and they were also to be standardized on the updated Panther Ausf. F, a tank that never reached fruition. A brand new set of ice cleats are available to add to the Panther Magic Tracks.
