-A plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the German half-track Maultier during World War II on 1/35 scale.
[About the actual vehicle]
--In World War II, the German army was equipped with a large number of half-track type vehicles with tires on the front wheels and tracked rear wheels similar to tanks.
――Among them, the simple type half-track that uses the chassis of the truck and has the rear part refurbished to be tracked is collectively called Maultier, and was produced in Opel and Ford Germany.
――When production started in 1942, it was deployed mainly on the Eastern Front, which is extremely muddy depending on the season, and it has excellent running performance, not only for transporting goods, but also for self-propelled artillery equipped with various artillery towing methods, ambulance type, etc. , Each type was made and was widely used.
[About the model]
-The model reproduces the basic type of Maultier on 1/35 scale.
――The chassis, which is precisely modeled in every detail such as the engine and suspension, can be known while assembling its structure.
-The rear suspension unique to the half-track type accurately reproduces the sprocket wheel and idler wheel, and the road wheel and suspension device are also modeled with multiple parts, giving a three-dimensional finish.
--The shape of the engine hood frame is reliably reproduced using a slide mold.
――The front fender and the radiator cover, which is the face, also have a realistic finish with attention to detail to enhance the feeling.
――The engine hood cover can be assembled by choosing to open and close, so it is possible to show the engine inside and finish it.
――In addition, you can choose to open or close the door of the driver's cabin, which has realistic internal details such as the dashboard and seats.
--In addition, this kit includes 3 figures of German soldiers.
-The figure adopts a relaxed pose during meals.
