TAMIYA35009 1/35 German PZKPFW II Plastic Model Kit for Unisex Adult

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.

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.

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.

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.

The kit itself is great, nice big parts and it goes together easily, all the roadwheels, apart from the return rollers work. The only problem, is that it claims to be able to make a Panzer II Ausf.G, but the Ausf.G is totally different from the Ausf.F. The option the kit claims makes it an Ausf.G is a turret storage basket; however this is not true. The basket was used on later model Ausf.Fs. So what you can make from the Kit is a Panzer II Ausf.F early, or Panzer II Ausf.F.

It is the best thing I ever got if you see this that means buy it! (Good for kids 10 and up.)

This model is ancient, let’s get that out of the way right up front, however, it’s still a model that everyone should build at least once. It’s great for beginners and anyone that may want practice weathering an AFV. It goes together wonderfully, looks decent even for its age, and is under $20. There’s nothing but win here.

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