Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Talk about a wild dune buggy. Here's the granddaddy of 'em all. It's Rommel's Rod, that Krazy Kommand Kar that prowled the sand of the deadly Sahara. More powerful than a Tiger Tank able to leap tall sand-dunes in a single bound, Rommel's Rod, had it been seen by the Allies, may well have turned the tide of the war. It's jam-packed with authentic, historical (?) detail and precision molded in authentic German Africa Korps colors. Two skeletons, the driver and commander Decals with World War II style military markings.

This review is from: Revell 1:24 Rommel'S Rod (Toy)
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!

This was one of my favorite models as a kid. I am eager to put this together and expect it will come out nicely. A slick and fun model. Nice for WWII buffs.

Not a toy but a scale model you have to glue together,

This review is from: Revell 1:24 Rommel'S Rod (Toy)
The kit is listed as a toy but it is a scale model that you need to glue together and paint if you want it to look anything like the box photo. This is not a toy that someone can push around on the floor, the best use after it is built is display.Now as for the model: 1. The Casting is very good 2. The parts all go together well 3. The Decals are done very well and go on very well The Kit is not super detailed with small parts, so I would say it's a level 2 model. For best results I would say the model builder should be at least young adult, 12+.
