Nice coupling of two kits, but the Sd.Kfz.7 STILL needs a canvas roof, either collapsed or extended.

Nothing wrong with this offering IF they are cheaper combined this way than separately and that I somehow doubt. I'd expect this kind of "convenience packaging" to save buyers say, twenty to twenty-five percent compared to buying them separately or it is only convenient to the manufacturer. And yes, they definitely need to include a canvas tilt on the darned halftrack -talk about an appalling oversight!
