Reviews : Tamiya 1-35 Panzer 1b

This little Panzer I is a gem! I'm just finishing it up. I would give it 5 stars, but it seemed to go together more fiddley than other recent Tamiya kits. Maybe because I'm getting older, I just want to be honest in my review. The tracks are very delicate, but once in place they look fantastic! The figure is one of the best ever! So detailed and life-like. Ok, I'm changing this to 5 stars. It's an excellent kit with great detail. Just because it didn't fall together for me. Just take care with the tracks and suspension. It's a delicate kit. Thanks!

?Tamiya Panzerkampfwagen I Ausf. B Tamiya kits are quickly becoming my go-to choice for modeling. The attention to detail in the decals and the thoughtful placement of seams are exceptional. While older Tamiya figures sometimes leaned toward a cartoonish appearance, these updated figures feature fine details that any modeler will appreciate.

Due to Tamiya quality this is a fun quick build. Kit includes a Photo-Etch muffler grill and some fantastic decals for the commander figure. Also has a special tool to form the photo-etch grill, a great touch. A nice addition to any Axis tank collection.
