Tamiya 35055 - 1/35 U.S. M41 Walker Bulldog: Lightweight armoured model for hobby builders

The U.S. M41 Walker Bulldog was developed as a mobile light tank capable of quick deployment and air transport, seeing service during the Korean conflict and beyond. Its role in mechanised reconnaissance made it a useful asset for cavalry regiments. The Tamiya 35055 kit captures the vehicle in accurate 1/35 proportions for model enthusiasts.

Detailing and realistic components

Moulded in dark green plastic to reflect period finishes, the kit contains three finely modelled figures, representing a commander and two crewmen to populate your scene. The main gun is built to move for realistic elevation, and the hatch can be set open or closed for variety.

Build experience and finishing options

Intended for modellers who appreciate military subjects, this kit features flexible tracks for authentic presentation and waterslide decals for correct insignia. The illustrated instructions lead you through construction so the finished model shows the M41s defining features.

Assembly time varies by skill, but many builders complete the kit across several evenings. Painting and weathering add extra time for a display quality finish.
Basic modelling tools are sufficient: sprue cutters, tweezers and a hobby knife. A toothpick or small file helps with track fitting and seam cleanup.
Yes, weathering techniques such as washes, drybrushing and pigments work well on the plastic surface to simulate wear, mud and faded paint.
