Packaging:

The Panzerbox arrived in a rather nice, high quality box that immediately grabbed my attention (and several other folks in the office). The back of the box outlines its many features and attributes. I immediately noticed that there was some heft to the box, which is odd since it's crafted from aluminum.

Upon cracking the seal on the box, we get our first glimpse of the beast. The shipping bag is a bit heavier-duty than what we normally see - a nice touch. While not double-boxed, the case appeared to be in good shape upon arrival. Time to remove it and do our standard visual inspection.

The Basics:

Once out of the box, we notice that the Panzerbox is a tad larger than your average midtower case. Much like its namesake, the Panzer tank, this chassis has a wider base than most. In the image below we see the Panzerbox to the left of NZXT's Beta Classic Series case, and we can see how much stockier it is. This allows for both a larger intake fan and hopefully a bit more interior room.

Time to delve into the guts of the Panzerbox. The below left image shows the front of the case. You can see the three 5.25" external bays, power and reset buttons, and the massive 190mm fan. The front and top are meshed out for plenty of fresh air. Around the back (below right image) there are two cutouts for water cooling, seven vented expansion bay slots, a 120mm fan, and the cutouts for the bottom mounted power supply and the motherboard backplane. You may also notice the extensive use of thumbscrews - something that makes this case truly tool-less.
