Tamiya 35270 - 1/35 German Sd.Kfz.222 Armoured Car Model Kit  [35270]

Introduction to the Sd.Kfz.222 scale kit

The Tamiya 35270 kit recreates the German Sd.Kfz.222 armoured car at 1/35 scale, preserving the vehicle's compact profile and distinctive open turret. The kit is aimed at modellers seeking historically faithful static models.

Operational role and kit fidelity

Equipped originally with a 20mm armament for reconnaissance, the Sd.Kfz.222 is rendered here with attention to welded armor detail and the grenade-deflecting mesh. The set includes photo-etched parts and a turned aluminium gun barrel for sharper weapon and hatch detail.

Construction considerations and finishing touches

Assembly provides a satisfying build for those comfortable with fine components. The kit supplies Jerry cans and drum cans for authentic scene dressing, plus decals updated from current research to assist accurate finishing.
