Despite all the focus on war machine that kills, there is another type of machine in use during the war. The Staff Car is one of them. Used mainly in the safety of home front. Revell has reboxed ICM build German Staff Car G4 in 1/35 scale. It is a very special vehicles, even Hitler is using it. There are three markings included, including Hitler personal car.
It's a relatively complex build in that the chassis has to be constructed from sides and cross beams, so check it is built square. A bit more work than a one piece item which is the case with many kits. The engine detail, drive train and all the interior details are included so plenty to keep you busy. The end result is an impressive 6-wheel car, and a really heavily built big Mercedes. The markings provide for 3 options, all for senior officers, including Hitler's own car of course. The one thing you will need to provide for yourself on the flags are the swastikas for their centres, as these cannot be included in some European countries. There are after-market sets for transfers available for them though, so not a huge problem.
