Tamiya 36211 1/16 Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.J Retro Armour Model  [36211]

Tamiya 1/16 German Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.J - Scale Detail Brief

The Ausf.J variant of the Pz.Kpfw.IV reflects late-war German modifications, notable for the 7.5cm KwK 40 L/48 armament and added side protection. Tamiya's 1/16 kit reproduces the grenade hatch on the turret and the Schurzen armour panels, aiming for a faithful scale likeness.

Assembly Features and Motorised Option

Assembly is geared toward builders who enjoy detailed modelling; the kit accommodates a Type 380 motor to enable forward motion. Detailed exterior elements mirror the tank's wartime defensive changes, offering a rewarding build for those who paint and weather their models.

Display Considerations for Modelers

Finished models make an effective display piece in a shelf or vignette. The combination of accurate surface detail and a driven element helps the model stand out among period armour collections.
