Hobby Boss HB-80130 1/35 Panzer IV Ausf C Scale Model Kit  [HB-80130]

Accurate 1/35 Scale Panzer IV Ausf C

The Hobby Boss HB-80130 model kit delivers a carefully engineered 1/35 scale reproduction of the German Panzer IV Ausf C, a notable early-war tank. Built with attention to period detail, the kit highlights a variant that had a limited production run and is of interest to scale military model collectors.

Combat Role and Key Design Traits

The Panzerkampfwagen IV served as a medium support tank built by Krupp-Grusion and became one of the most produced German tanks, with over 12,000 units across all versions. The Ausf C is recognised for its short 7.5 cm main gun alongside an MG34 in the turret, and its distinctive flat-front superstructure which aligns the driver and radio operator visors on a single plane.

First released in July 2015, the HB-80130 suits model builders focused on precise historical representation.
