Hobby Boss 83879 1/35 Vickers Medium Tank Mk II - Precision Scale Representation

The Hobby Boss 83879 1/35 Vickers Medium Tank Mk II captures a key interwar armoured vehicle in compact scale for serious hobbyists. The kit highlights careful moulding and period-specific shapes that make it rewarding for builders who focus on historical accuracy and finish.

Interwar Context and Model Accuracy

Coming from the late 1920s era, the original Vickers Medium Tank Mk II helped define British mechanised formations between the world wars. This kit reflects that transitional design with attention to turret form and suspension geometry, helping modellers achieve an authentic representation at 1/35 scale.

Building Experience and Display Value

Assembly delivers a methodical modelling challenge suited to those with some kit experience; the parts require neat gluing and careful fit work. Finished models make strong display pieces and fit well into museum-style or diorama layouts, rewarding patience with visible detail and accurate silhouette.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
  • Part Count: Extensive
This kit is best for intermediate modellers; it has many small parts and requires careful assembly and painting for the best results.
Basic modelling tools like sprue cutters, fine files, hobby glue, and brushes are sufficient, though a hobby knife and tweezers will help with small components.
Decals included with the kit reflect typical markings for the period, but research on unit colours and markings will help you pick historically accurate schemes.
