1/35 scale view of the Universal Carrier Mk.II

Introduced in 1942, the Universal Carrier Mk.II became a staple tracked vehicle for British forces. Tamiya's 1/35 representation reproduces the carrier's compact shape and functional form, giving scale enthusiasts an accurate subject to build and display.

The carrier in service and its duties

Serving across varied battlefields from North Africa to European fronts, the Mk.II handled reconnaissance, transport and support tasks. The model reflects its low-slung profile and practical interior space used to move personnel and stores.

Why builders choose this kit

The kit provides a rewarding build with finely detailed parts and flexible track elements. Five figures are included to populate scenes, and four decal options allow choices for different wartime units and locations.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic
  • Includes: Five figures, flexible tracks, detailed accessories
  • Decals: Four variations for diverse settings
Expect well-defined plastic components and small accessories that convey cockpit and exterior detail. The five figures add life to a display, though painting will bring out finer details.
The included waterslide decals are compatible with typical weathering techniques; modellers often apply filters and washes to integrate the decals with paint and grime.
The box contains the core parts for a faithful model, but many builders add aftermarket bits or scratchbuilt items for added realism depending on the scene they want to create.
