The Tamiya 35042 reproduces the compact M3 Stuart at 1/35 scale with crisp moulding and proportionate detail, making it a solid choice for historical armour collections.
The kit highlights the M3's defining elements like its VVSS bogie suspension and period turret layouts. Though later tanks surpassed it, the M3's early war service is well represented here, including the rounded D39273 turret included in the box.
Parts are laid out for a satisfying build and include authentic touches such as the Guiberson diesel engine arrangement, which adds credibility to engine bays and under-hood details for those who like to open up hulls.
