Tamiya 35390 - 1/35 US Tank Destroyer M36 kit details

This Tamiya 1/35 US Tank Destroyer M36 kit reproduces a wartime tank destroyer at a scale suited to display and diorama work. The model balances authentic detail with construction techniques that aid accurate assembly.

Development and battlefield use

Produced to address the M10's limits against heavier German tanks, the M36 used the M10A1 chassis and mounted a 90mm main gun inside an open turret. The kit reflects configurations seen from October 1944 through May 1945, based on careful research.

What is in the box

Newly moulded parts form the bulk of the kit, while the M2 machine gun and the clear components are retained from earlier Tamiya kits. Inside the turret the 90mm gun breech and auxiliary fittings are modelled, and a detailed rear counterweight is included. Slide moulding ensures tighter part geometry during building.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Dimensions: Model length 216mm by width 88mm
  • Decals: Provided

The Tamiya M36 in 1/35 offers a thorough build that will satisfy modellers focused on military subjects. Its accurate components and thoughtful engineering support a quality final model.

Novice modellers can attempt the kit but should expect to spend time on small assemblies. Patience and basic tools are recommended.
The kit supplies a plastic gun assembly. Builders sometimes replace it with an aftermarket metal barrel for added realism.
Decals are printed to match period markings and fit the kit's scale. Apply setting solution for the best conformation to curved surfaces.
Paint subassemblies before final assembly and use masking where needed. Thinned coats preserve small detail inside the turret.
With dimensions of about 216mm by 88mm, the finished model fits well on standard 1/35 diorama bases and display plates.
