Description
The Panther Ausf. G was the third production series of this hugely successful German tank design. A total of 3,126 Panther G tanks were manufactured between March 1944 and April 1945. Incorporating improvements over the earlier Ausf.D and A, the Panther G boasted a redesigned hull with increased armor protection and simplified construction. Dragon has previously released a 1/72 scale of a Panther G, and this accurate miniature kit has proved to be a hit with small-scale modelers. However, a tank is only as good as its crew, and so Dragon has come up with a fine set of 1/72 scale tank crewmen to man its Panther!
