Tamiya have been inspiring model makers worldwide for over 50 years. Over the years, they have built their reputation and are rightly promoted with the slogan "the benchmark in model construction". Since 1957, Tamiya has been producing kits and finished models in scales from 1:6 to 1:700 without compromising on its values of quality and absolutely precise fit. Tamiya tools, paints and other accessories are used across brands and enjoy great popularity. Tamiya model kits can be painted according to your own conception. Total length 197 mm, total width: 5 mm. Warning: not suitable for children under the age of 14. Review: Loved the model, it was a fun and quick build. The manual has some nice historical info about the vehicle. Overall I really recommend Review: Back as a teen (all those ages and ages ago) I always wanted this kit but never got around to getting it. Three decades later I picked up the hobby again after having my Achilles Tendon surgically reattached to my heel (long story). This one one of the first kits I bought though one I didn't get around to building right away. I should have! It's a quality kit that really is fun to build. It's not as simple a kit as you might think but not so challenging as to become overwhelming. It assembles relatively easily (as long as you don't misread the instructions and assemble the wheels improperly - lost a good day trying to figure THAT one out, lol), and the kit looks great along side the newer, more detailed kits of today. It's almost hard to believe it's been around as long as it has. When assembled properly the front wheels roll and turn side to side as if being steered, and the tracks roll on the wheels a little which I find is a neat little addition. It allowed me to create track marks in the "mud" VERY easily! My only criticism - and it's simply me being picky, is I would have liked the option of adding a driver. The soldiers provided are great (I think they're a subset of the German Assault Troops kit made by Tamiya), but a driver would have offered some options other than deploying for battle. Having said that, I found a kit on here from Dragon that has 4 figures including a gunner, driver, assistant driver, and fellow with binocs specifically designed for a halftrack like this one! A FABULOUS addition to the soldiers already provided! Whether you're an old hand at military modeling or just getting started you can't go wrong by having this kit in your collection if it isn't already. Even if it IS, can you REALLY have TOO MANY halftracks?? ## Features - Kit includes five figures - This kit is 6.5 Inch long - 1/35 Scale Armor ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000WN8AHA | | Assembly Required | Yes | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #72,201 in Toys ( See Top 100 in Toys ) #34 in Car Model Building Kits | | Color | Gray | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (1,898) | | Date First Available | 9 August 2012 | | Item model number | TAM35020 | | Language | English, French, German, Italian, Spanish | | Manufacturer recommended age | 14 years and up | | Material Type(s) | Plastic | | Number of Game Players | 1 | | Number of Puzzle Pieces | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 28.89 x 19.05 x 5.41 cm; 299 g | | Radio Control Suitability | Indoor | | Release date | 5 September 2012 | | Remote Control Included? | No | | Scale | 1:35 Scale | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Tamiya - **Age range (description):** 14 years plus - **Colour:** Gray - **Theme:** Military - **Cartoon character:** German Armored Personnel Carrier Hanomag SdKfz 251/1 ## Images ![Tamiya 35020 1/35 German Hanomag SDKFZ 251/1 Plastic Model Kit Cars, Military Green, Grey, for 14 years plus - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71zvTN1yiUL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: will the German 88mm flak gun attach to the back** A: The SdKfz 251 has a tow pintle that the towed 88 mm FLAK gun can attach to. The most common prime mover for a towed 88 was the SdKfz 7 half track. Larger, more power, and carried more troops and cargo than the SdKfz 251. Tamiya makes a very nice SdKfz 7 kit...... **Q: What version(Ausf.) does this represent?** A: The Tamiya kit is an Sd.Kfz. 251/1 - Schützenpanzerwagen. Standard personnel carrier. **Q: How many pieces in this kit, give/take the 5 figures?** A: This is a classic Tamiya kit from 1973 and includes about 80 pieces including the two vinyl tracks. The four pages of instructions are clearly illustrated and easy to follow. Assembly is easy, so take your time and enjoy the effort. **Q: Hi what is the length, width and height of the model?** A: The SdKfz 251 is about 7 inches long, 2 3/8 inches wide, and about 2 inches high to the top of the hull. The machine gun and shield add about another half inch to that. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by O***1 on 16 January 2023* Loved the model, it was a fun and quick build.

Se monta en dos tardes, una para el vehículo y otra para el pelotón de panzergrenadiers que le acompaña. Interesante como primera maqueta o como base o complemento para dioramas. Es también la típica maqueta barata que te sirve para experimentar pinturas y acabados que igual no te atreverías con modelos mas caros o complejos. Como es habitual en Tamiya, calcas censuradas, así que nos olvidamos del Afrika korps. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tamiya 35020 1/35 German Hanomag SDKFZ 251/1 Plastic Model Kit - Tamiya Models German Pzkfw V Panther Ausf A Model Kit - TAMIYA 35009 1/35 German PZKPFW II Plastic Model Kit for Unisex Adult --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/291965915-tamiya-35020-1-35-german-hanomag-sdkfz-251-1-plastic](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/291965915-tamiya-35020-1-35-german-hanomag-sdkfz-251-1-plastic) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
