The IBG Stug III model had impressed me so much that I ordered the previous two "magazine issues with attached models" from teh internet! In a strict historical sense only good for Poland 1939 as they were removed from combat service before France 1940. The first model/make of Panzer III but with five main large road wheels and only two rollers which makes it look "odd". All-in-all the Panzer III was a little beast and caused the Germans lots of teething problems of a mechanical and design nature. They finally got it sorted for Barbarossa in 1941 but then they met the Russian T-34 (see below):

Note: A beautiful quick build model of a strange (almost unknown) variant of the Panzer III. I can recommend it unreservedly. All I need do now is paint it in Panzer Grey!
Others do it better (see link below):
