Historical Information about the Kübelwagen Type 82

The Volkswagen Kübelwagen Type 82 was the standard light reconnaissance vehicle of the Wehrmacht during World War II. Designed by Ferdinand Porsche, it was based on the chassis of the famous “Beetle” and served on all fronts throughout the conflict. Kübelwagen took part in the French, African and Eastern Front campaigns. Simple, lightweight, and reliable, it was the German equivalent of the American Willys MB Jeep.

Features of the Voyager Model PE35828 Set

The set includes highly detailed photo-etched components that allow the improvement of both interior and exterior details of the Kübelwagen model. The brass sheets make it possible to reproduce very thin and realistic elements, such as:

• detailed door hinges,
• wipers,
• headlight guards,
• seat frames and handles,
• interior panels,
• additional equipment (e.g., buckles and equipment mounts).

Thanks to the use of thin brass components, an unparalleled level of detail can be achieved—these details would be impossible to reproduce with plastic parts. This set allows you to bring the classic HERO 35002 model to a higher level of realism.

Recommendation and Difficulty Level

We recommend the Voyager Model PE35828 set to experienced modelers and enthusiasts of armored vehicles and historical replicas from the World War II period who are looking for modeling challenges and maximum historical accuracy. Due to the nature of photo-etched parts and the need for precise assembly, we rate the difficulty of this set at level 4/5.

This set is for those who demand outstanding detail quality and want to build a Kübelwagen model at a master level.
