Are there more the two versions of the 21C Panzer IV? I know of the S1 and the Euro versions are there anymore. I also know about the RC tank by millennium toys at Wal-Mart.

I believe thats the only 3 out there right now. But according to the catolog I picked up at toy fair, there will be one for the Bridge to far series,the pic shows it with side skirts.

OK I've seen S1 and RC in the U.S. and then theres the Euro Panzer IV. At one Walmart I found some 3 color camo panzers, 2 had the upper turret armor and the other3 didn't. All were redbrown, tan, darkgreen.
I've got 3 S1 and wouldn't mind a few more.

There is a total of four versions. 2 non and 2 r/c version. First one (non) has the number 819 that's tan with green stripes. Second one (non) refered to as Euro has 124 that's tan with brown spots. Third one (r/c) has 122 that's tan. Forth one (r/c) has 634 that's tri camo (yellow, brown, and green). I would like to get a few more that are not r/c version. The cool part about the different paint version are they all have different numbers. The Tigers all have the same number. Also the Euro and third version have the bear logo on them. I don't know about the armor and non armor, maybe that they forgot to put it on. All the version I have are equiped with armor. Plus the Euro version has side shirts. I think that covers everything about the versions. Hope that helps.

I'm curious about the paintjobs and their respective theaters of operation (if any)...

The tan RC one is the 2nd one I got... I love it, kidn of assumed it was a North Africa version by the color but wasn't sure. WOuld've liked one for the Ardennes preferably, or Normandy...

I got the Camo non-RC one on clearance (got the RC one on clearance too). The irony on the non-RC one was that these weren't in my area at all then one day one showed up in the clearance aisle for $25, very odd. I got what they had since I didn't have much choice.

Great tank, and 2 great autumn camo tankers to go with it too, can't knock that for a great price.

Anyone know where these beasts operated, or would have operated?

I see if I can get some pictures of all four up on my website today. As for operation, maybe some one can tell by the pictures.

DOES ANYONE HAVE A PIC OF THE BRIDGE TOO FAR STUFF?

All of the PZ IV released so far are H models which served in Western Europe or the Russian front. You would have to go by the unit markings to determine which ones served at Normandy.

Pictures are up in my webpage under XD pictures. Sorry for how dark they are, but you can see the just of them. I'll have to try and get some better ones up later.

Both 1/18 Panzer IV's with the standing bear were members of the 3rd Panzer Division which fought in Russia.

Panzer IV numbered 634 is a sixth company Panzer Lehr division tank which definitely fought in Normandy. Panzer IV numbered 819 is an eighth company Panzer Lehr division member as indicated by the "L" on the tank's front plate. Panzer Lehr fought almost completely on the Western Front, was virtually wiped out in Normandy, but was reformed later. I cannot confirm that "819" in the camoflague scheme chosen by 21st Century fought in Normandy or whether this was a later camo scheme used by the division.
