High Fidelity 1/35 PLA ZBD-868 IFV Kit

The Trumpeter 05558 - 1/35 PLA ZBD-868 Infantry Fighting Vehicle (IFV) kit reproduces the ZBD 86B configuration, highlighting the 30mm gun turret and HJ-73 anti-tank launcher. The parts are designed to recreate the vehicle's profile and external fittings for display-ready results.

Variant Background and Modelling Features

As a descendant of the BMP-1, the ZBD-868 embodies upgrades to armament and systems that increased battlefield capability. This kit reflects those refinements and contains over 470 parts, including a photo-etched fret and 180 individual track links for authentic track work. Multi-slide moulded lower and upper hulls maintain scale accuracy while aiding assembly precision.

Yes, the scale and detail level make it ideal for a compact diorama showing operational poses, crew figures and terrain effects without overwhelming a small base.
Work slowly with fine tweezers and a sharp hobby knife to free pieces, then bend and attach them with minimal CA glue. Practice on spare brass to get comfortable with the scale.
Some hatches are modelled as separate parts so you can choose to leave them open or closed; check instructions for subassembly steps that make open hatches easier to paint and fit.
