I just got this today:
And I am amazed by the detail and quality of this model. I got into 1/18 late in the game...around when the Kiowa came out and I remember the feeling I got when I opened the Kiowa and today it was the same! I know alot of folks had heartache with 21C's QC but looking at this model I can't help but think that we lost something special when 21st closed it's doors. I wish all the best to Allgo & the other companies and to everyone who keeps making customs, keep em coming. Hooyah!!

I just got one recently too! That is an awesome vehicle especially if you have the Patton figure in his dress uniform sitting in it.

Sorry guys but what you have a Dodge Command Car. A Scout Car is armored.

21st also released the command car in 1/6 scale to go with the 1/6 scout car shown. Patton had his own special armored scout car I believe. Think I have seen several photos of it.

Okay, I'm a idiot, I missed that these were 1/6, I thought they were 1/18, those must be huge

To gauge the difference in scales, here is a pic of my SdKfz 251 in 1/6 and a 21C 1/18 "251".
And my custom made 1/18 Scout Car next to my custom 1/18 Sturmmoerser Tiger.
And that's Patton's War Eagle 1/6 Jeep peaking in the pic corner.

Got that one too, and the 1:6 Dodge Command Car and, and..... they are all awesome. Nice customs too.
Congrads on getting the 1:18 (Patton) Command Car Popeye357.
The dirty, or should I say muddy version is cool too. It goes with the dirty, muddy Weapons Carrier, and Troop Carrier.
I need to look but I think there's even a muddy Jeep.
