Trumpeter 00433 - 1/35 Soviet Soldier Afghan War Model Kit - Cold War Figure Kit  [TP00433]

Cold War Infantry Figure for Model Collections

The Trumpeter 1/35 Soviet Soldier Afghan War model kit portrays a Soviet soldier from the Afghan campaign with fine-detail moulding aimed at hobbyists who build and paint historical figures. The parts allow a realistic portrayal of uniform layers and carried equipment typical of late 20th century field gear.

Historical Relevance and Display Use

The Soviet-Afghan War (1979 to 1989) left a strong imprint on military kit and field practice, making figures from this era valuable to collectors. This model represents those period elements and sits well alongside vehicles or other infantry from the same timeframe.

Tips for Assembly and Finishing

At 1/35 scale precise trimming, careful gluing and thin paint coats will preserve the sculpted detail. Adding subtle dirt and paint chipping can sell realism, while mounting the completed figure on a small scenic base improves presentation.
