Introducing the Tamiya 1/35 Panzer I Ausf.B Plastic Kit

The Tamiya 35388 model recreates the compact Panzer I Ausf.B in 1/35 scale, highlighting the vehicle's longer hull and upgraded 100hp engine from the Ausf.B revision. This kit is designed for hobbyists who want a faithful small armour subject with clean parts and fine etched detailing.

Service Record and Field Role

Used for training and early-war operations, the Panzer I Ausf.B appeared in the Spanish Civil War and during invasions of Poland and operations on the Eastern Front. Tamiya includes accurate representations of the twin 7.92mm MG13 and period track geometry to reflect its service appearance.

Detailing and Presentation Notes

The set features anti-slip textures on the fenders and a delicate photo-etched exhaust cover. A commander figure with alternate headgear allows you to tailor the final display, whether static in a cabinet or integrated into a small scene.

Yes. The kit is designed to allow realistic track sag when assembled carefully; leave small gaps between links and test fit before gluing to achieve a natural droop.
The figure is unpainted. Painting gives the best result - use fine brushes and thin layers of acrylics to pick out uniforms and helmet details.
The photo-etched parts include the exhaust cover and other fine details. Use care when handling and attach them with CA glue or a dedicated photo-etch adhesive.
