Replica of the Type 97 Late Version in 1/35 scale

The Type 97 was a widely used Japanese medium tank in World War II and this kit renders the late version at 1/35 scale. The model focuses on an accurate silhouette and the late-production turret fitted with a 47mm gun for historically minded displays.

Realistic detailing and operational parts

The kit supplies detailed components and operational features that help create a convincing miniature. Key items include a turret that rotates, movable machine guns on hull and turret, plus belt type tracks that replicate the prototype running gear.

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Assembly Type: Plastic assembly kit
  • Turret Rotation: Yes
  • Movable Parts: Hull and turret machine guns
  • Track Type: Belt type
Yes, decal sheets are supplied and they contain markings appropriate to the late version vehicles for a more authentic finish.
Use matt and semi-matt acrylics or enamels matched to period references. A muted base with subtle weathering suits the Type 97 look.
Essential tools include sprue cutters, a sharp hobby knife, tweezers, files and plastic cement. Small brushes help with fine painting and weathering.
The kit is moderately challenging with small parts and detailed assembly steps. It is best suited to modellers who have completed other plastic kits.
A simple base or wartime diorama enhances presentation. Keep the model out of direct sunlight and dust with a display case for long term preservation.
