Tamiya 35268 1/35 Sd.Kfz.223 Armoured Recon Car Kit with Photo-Etched Parts  [35268]

Overview of the Tamiya 1/35 Sd.Kfz.223 Reconstruction Kit

The Tamiya 35268 captures the German Sd.Kfz.223 reconnaissance car in 1/35 scale with careful attention to shape and fittings. Including photo-etched elements, the kit lets builders add crisp, small-scale detail to the finished model.

Operational Background and Detail

The Sd.Kfz.223 played a reconnaissance role and operated in varied theatres, including desert campaigns. Tamiya renders the vehicle's open turret and mesh screening faithfully, which helps when aiming for an authentic finish.

Contents and Model Build Guidance

Alongside the vehicle parts, the kit supplies common period accessories like jerry cans and a camo net plus two figures for scene building. The brass photo-etched parts are a highlight and benefit from precise trimming and careful gluing during assembly.
