TAMIYA 35009 1/35 German PZKPFW II Plastic Model Kit for Unisex Adult

If you happen to be wanting to explore modeling and getting into tanks, thisis certainly a good tank to start with. Everything went together well with very little sanding and just a little bit of flash on some of the smaller parts. The figures do have some seam lines, and if that is something you don't care fore, you will need to use a hobby knife to fix them. I believe the tank commander is a little too big, at least for a 1/35 size, since you have to work a little to get him into the turret. Overall, this was a fun kit to build and paint.

Anyone who is into tanks models should pick up this little model. It is a must have for tanks builds. It is easy to assemble, comes with 5 figures, and can be had at a low cost. A great model to practice painting and effect schemes. I stayed with the north Africa theme, but these were used in all theaters by the Germans, so a German grey could be use. The figures that come with it are in North Africa uniforms.

A really nice Tamiya kit from the 70th but still good, easy to build and can be converted with a bit skill into a interesting model of the Panzer II. Details and quality are good but not optimal (based on the age of the kit), not too much parts for beginners, price is really ok and the kit makes fun to built, also for experienced model builder it`s still an interesting small kit. The kit includes decals for the Africa version of the tank (DAK = German Africa Corps) but can be easy converted to other versions if you like., so I built two versions DAK in desert color and one in german standard color of 1941/42 panzer grey. The instructions are basic, correct painting instructions can be found in the net.

Very detailed for the year it was made. Fun for beginners and advanced users as well.

Usual Tamiya kit, beautifully molded and detailed. The four figures look great. A nice kit for beginners. For some great tutorials, check out some builds on YouTube. The kit is UNPAINTED as are the figures. This is a glue together kit, NOT a screw together die-cast. Treads/tracks are rubber, not photo-etched metal. Kit is a basic tank model in 1/35 scale, about 7 inches long, figures are about 2 1/2 inches tall. Molded in the sand color, but can be painted by more experienced modelers. Recommended.

Detailed plastic model however seems on high priced side.

The parts fitted together like a glove, despite this being an older kit. The colour scheme is easy for a beginner and the instructions easy to follow.

Great price, packaged well, fast shipping, thank you.
