From what i read the Zvezda Sdkfz. 222 has a reputation for being hard to assemble and an overall frustrating experience.
So i cracked the box to see if this myth will be busted or not. You can read the long story here:

Oh, don't be such a baby!
Don't say "hard to assemble". Say "It's for experienced modelers"! |

Well, it does not compare to a Dragon 1/72 pro 140 pieces kit however it's a little devil in itself! But i agree, the model certainly is for "experienced modelers" only! :) |

Why are the Zveda traicked vehicles a doddle to put together and the wheeled ones a nightmare?
Are they designed by different people? |

not sure but I've put together 8 of those  s myself or is it 10, using BF 223 radio ones for the command for the patrols. |

Nothing that a bit of filler won't cure. |
