Tamiya 26533 1/48 Kubelwagen Type 82 Scale Display Model  [26533]

Accurate 1/48 Kubelwagen Type 82 Representation

The Tamiya 26533 Kubelwagen Type 82 is offered as a finished 1/48 scale display model that reproduces the silhouette and details of this wartime vehicle. Initially a civilian design by Dr. Ferdinand Porsche, the Kubelwagen was adapted into service for its light construction and reliable air-cooled engine.

Recorded Use and Detail Fidelity

The model depicts a Kubelwagen assigned to JG52 in Italy in May 1944. Craftsmanship extends to cabin details and the underside, and the applied paint includes a gentle wash with realistic weathering to match period usage.

Collector Value and Visual Impact

Pad-printed markings and metal spin-cast components enhance the model's appearance and balance. It is a fine complement to collections of 1/48 German armour or aircraft, adding a genuine historical note to display layouts.
