Description

Tamiya ventured into the modeling business in 1948, with a scale wooden ship model kit. Since then, Tamiya has been striving to offer merchandise that can truly be called ‘First in Quality Around the World.’ Now Tamiya is offering more than 300 different products, both in the fields of precision static models and high performance radio control vehicles. These products are not only sold in Japan but also exported in vast quantities to the United States, Europe, South East Asia, and to many other parts of the world. The standard of excellence achieved by Tamiya is regarded as among the very finest in the world of model hobbies. This model kit recreates the Leopard 2 A6 Tank with molded parts and accessories from Item 35271 1/35 Leopard 2 A6. This edition includes new decals depicting the Ukraine army flag, complementary painting guide and new packaging. In January 2023, the German government announced that it would send fourteen Leopard 2 A6 tanks to Ukraine, later adding a further four: as of March 2023, it was planned to send a total of eighteen. The included new decals in this kit depict a white cross, a symbol historically used in Ukraine by groups such as Cossacks. This finely detailed plastic model kit requires assembly and painting.
