Willys MB Jeep in 1/35 scale from Tamiya 35219

The Tamiya 35219 1/35 Willys MB Jeep recreates the familiar WWII utility vehicle in a compact scale, offering modellers a realistic subject for shelf displays and small dioramas.

Historical background and kit accuracy

Designed to be light and dependable, the Willys MB became a staple of Allied operations. This kit reproduces the early slat grille variant and represents the vehicle's common wartime uses such as personnel carriage and communications support.

Modeling Appeal and Display Value

The moulded parts come in olive green with transparent windscreen pieces. A driver figure is included and the bonnet opens to reveal engine components. Interior and accessory details, including a machine gun and jerry can, add to the model's presentation potential.
