In this review I will tell you more about ICM 1/35 Wehrmacht le.gl.Einheitz-Pkw (DS3513). As you can see on the boxart, one box brings three kits which copy German wheeled military vehicle in popular scale. I reviewed those as separate releases, so it will be interesting to see how they are combined together. Overall packaging is typical, and there are 207 parts for le.gl.Einheitz-Pkw Kfz.1, 208 parts for le.gl.Einheitz-Pkw Kfz.2, 223 parts for le.gl.Einheitz-Pkw Kfz.4 and 30 parts for Zwillingssockel 36. It means we get one infantry car, one radio version and one equipped with AA gun. As the parts are the same for almost whole vehicle, let's open one and take a closer look together.
By the way, here you can read review with another great combo-set in the same scale.

Watch this video-review where I show all parts even closer.
We are going to start with parts for AA gun installation. This should be glued out of several sections and can be built in either deployed or transport positions.
Note that different versions will require other versions of parts, so be ready to use the right ones. Here, for example, you see the other type of the rear panels.
This frame should be the same for all three cars, as here you will find floor panel, main chassis, bonnet panels and even the windscreen frame.
And again you can see slightly different version which will be useful for your AA gun build. Molding quality looks great on all parts, even on the smallest ones.
Roof will be folded on all three cars, but this will be useful for showing what is inside.
All doors are molded separately, and you can assemble them in open position if necessary. Note that even rifles are included in the standard package.
Clear parts are packed into separate plastic bag. Molding quality looks great, but there are no masks for those parts unfortunately.
Decals look fine, printing quality is as nice as in other ICM kits.
AA gun has its own assembly manual, while three vehicles are supplied with separate brochures. You can check all pages in the video-review.
Today's combo-set should be already available for purchase. In my opinion it is a nice choice in case you want to share with your friend or just want to build all three at once. It might be also a good opportunity to play with different weathering on each. Overall quality looks great, and assembly options will come in handy for sure. The only thing you should remember is to pay attention to small parts. It might be also a great idea to get some figures for even more convincing appearance.
