Tamiya is pleased to announce this new set, which pairs the classic Marder III M (Item 35255) with brand new figures and additional parts including markings to assemble the model as a vehicle seen on the Normandy Front in the closing years of WWII. The Marder III M was a hardy German tank destroyer with 7.5cm Pak40/3 gun, based on the obsolete Czech-built 38(t) tank chassis. 942 were produced from May 1943, and some of those served on the Normandy front as occupying Nazi German forces attempted to stem the Allied advance.
About the Model
• This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly kit. Length: 149.5mm.
• The Marder III M form is accurately recreated, including its layout with central engine (hence the “M” designation for “Mitte” = middle) and rear fighting compartment, 7.5cm gun, and interior details such as the gun breech, shell racks and radio equipment.
• Assembly type tracks allow realistic depiction of “sag” on the upper run.
• Photo-etched part recreates the exhaust cover.
• Comes with 4 full body figures and one torso figure in realistic pose, plus 2 Normandy Front marking options.
