## Description

The German army in WWII used a wide variety of wheeled vehicles as part of their overall strategy of fast mechanized warfare. Among the most widely used was the 3Ton 4x2 Cargo Truck, a truck design that was first produced in the 1930s. Featuring a dependable 6-cylinder gasoline engine,the 3Ton 4x2 Cargo Truck could take on a very large payload disproportionate to its size. They proved to be not only extremely reliable, but also very versatile, and were employed in a wide variety of roles, including fuel truck, ambulance, radio truck, as well as general-purpose cargo truck.High-quality 1/35 scale assembly model kit of the 3Ton 4x2 Cargo Truck.This kit is an all-new molding, and is much more accurate than kits current on the market. The actual trucks chassis had a forward slant (designed to balance the cargos weight), and this unique feature has been accurately reproduced. Suspension features a reasonable number of parts for easy assembly without sacrificing detail.- Driver and navigator figures included. Accessory set of fuel drums and jerry cans also included for a full cargo load. Comes with 4 types of markings, including both German army and Luftwaffe units. To aid with painting, window masks will be included for the first time in a military model. The actual truck served from the 1930s to the end of the war on all battle fronts, so this model can be displayed together with a wide range of other Tamiya 1/35 scale vehicles and figures such as Sturmgeschutz III Ausf. B and King Tiger.Requires paint and assembly.

Review: Easy Assembly, modest part count and solidly detailed. - A typically and predictably well-rounded kit from Tamiya. The simple build and modest part count allows one to focus on finishing & weathering. This kit is a perfect "blank canvas" due to the open bed. I purchased this kit almost 5 years ago and it sat on my "to do" list until very recently. I went with a basic grey base versus the later war dark yellow base with camo patterns. This was completed with a combination of shadow coating/airbrushing, artist oils for streaking & color modulation, dry pigments, sponge chipping & enamel streaking.
Review: Fun Kit - I purchased this kit for use in a diorama that I was constructing. It was a fun build and the detail was pretty good. No issues during the construction process. It's nice.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Nicely Detailed Model
*by R***X on January 27, 2019*

My son enjoys assembling military models like this one. We've discovered that lately models from the Tamiya company seem to be of better quality than Revell. This wasn't always the case, but the quality control at Tamiya is excellent. Not so at Revell anymore. Also, since Tamiya also makes paints, it's nice to be able to exactly match colors from the paint guide included with their assembly instructions. This was a nice addition to his collection and looks good on his military models shelf. Highly recommended.
