The Tamiya 1/35 Italian / German 508CM Coloniale represents a Fiat light staff car first produced in 1937. It was widely used in North African theatre for transport and reconnaissance, and after Italy's 1943 surrender some examples were used by German forces, reflecting the vehicle's rugged practicality.
Made in partnership with Italeri, this kit offers precise parts and assembly choices. You can fit the model with either a folded open roof or a closed convertible top, and the headlamp parts are modelled to German specification for authentic appearance.
The kit contains new pieces for a closed roof option, allowing varied display setups. Dual-service decals let you choose Italian or German finishes, and the included figures help create a historically grounded vignette for cabinet display or a larger diorama.
