1:35 Panzer Kampfwagen II Ausf. F/G

I highly recommend this model kit to all levels of modeller; for the price and quality, its a great kit! First of all its Tamiya, so you're going to get value. It may not be up to the high-end standards of other more manufacturers that cater to the advanced/professional modeller, but you get a kit that is detailed enough the pros respect, satisfy the intermediate builders, and challenge the entry level novice. Molded in a styrene equivalent of the Deutsch Afrika Korps dark yellow, the kit is neatly packed in a handsome box with great artwork. A single plastic sealed bag protects the majority of the parts sprues, which the exception of the hull and superstructure halves which are loose. Inspection of the kits shows crisp moulding with no flash in sight and the level of detail, panel lines, grates, girls, etc. is impressive for a kit that costs less than $20. For those wanting a more detailed and realistic representation of the subject, the only thing I can see is maybe an upgrade set of individual track links (if they even exist) as only vinyl is provided. I may use a trick I learned of using pins from the inside of the hull to push down a create a slight sag in the vinyl to simulate the weight of the track between the return rollers. Two sets of instructions are provided (Japanese and English) The instructions are very good, with clear sequencing and numbering of parts coupled with easy to understand options. The instructions also have a whole history of the vehicle including a breakdown of battalion structure. There is also a painting and decal application instruction insert, but this is only in Japanese so a little research may be necessary to understand what your painting and applying marking for. In addition there is another helpful insert which is a set of techniques for cutting, scraping, glueing, painting, etc...this will be a big help for the novice. I'm defiantly going to be building this one soon as part of my Afrika Korps collection, but its such a great kit for the price that I'm going to order another just to have in my kit stash.

This kit a lot of extra detail parts I was not expecting. Excellent product.

Billig och trevlig modell👍

Przesyłka dotarła . Juz myslałem ze bedzie w poniedziałek..

I love this kit, its a great mojo restorer. It goes together beautifully, it includes figures if you want to build a diorama and its impressive but not too taxing, this would be a great first tank build for anyone wanting to try a 1/35 scale tank kit. It's inexpensive and looks great when its finished.
