(More customer reviews)Like a lot of enthusiastic model building children in the early 70s, I too built and cherished this awesome Tom Daniel kit. Hey man, it had every thing a young boy could ask for back in the day. Guns, heavy armor and goose stepping skeletons no less. After my parents threw me out of their garage when I was 35 I lost possession of all my cool old model kits (I guess they tossed them out or sold them) Whatever the case I was never able to locate another Rommel's Rod that didn't cost an arm and a leg. These suckers were going for as much as $80 bucks at auctions and kit conventions, and I wasn't about to put out that kind of bread for something that was already opened and more times than not already partially built or had very aged decals, missing skeletons or wheels etc. Eventually people simply weren't building these any more, they had become too valuable for that. So a lot of the times you would be bidding on a kit that had been sold and resold many times over, having been shipped across contintents, stored in dirty old warehouses and closets, I mean, the old original vintage kits that were being sold for huge amounts of cash were starting to look pretty bad, yet people were demanding top dollar for them. And that totally SUCKED! But no longer! Here it is once again just as big and bad as it was back in the day! You can score one of these suckers for as little as $16 bucks at your local hobby store, I did, so I bought two of them!
Hey man, everything is here inside the kit. The vehicle is just as awesome and cool as it was back in the original. The dead goose stepping skeletons are present and accounted for along with their weapons and garb. You won't be disappointed!

Finally this great kit is back features 71 pieces molded in beige 9 inches long with waterslide decals. Two skeletons included driver and commander chrome parts and rubber tires. Decals with World War II style military markings, molded in beige and clear with chrome plated parts and black vinyl tires. A real gone "dune buggy" of WWII vintage designed by Tom Daniel. It's a half-track Kommand Kar that might have been used by the Desert Fox himself to prowl the lonely Sahara. Powered by a supercharged Mercedes engine, it sports a Mercedes front end a halftrack rear, swivel-mounted machine gun and the bleached skeletons of the Desert Fox and his driver. Skill level 2
