Fine detail and build quality for the Type 10

The Tamiya 25173 reproduces the Type 10 tank in 1/35 scale with careful moulding and accurate proportions. DEF.MODEL photo-etched parts are included to boost surface fidelity and let builders practise finer assembly and finishing techniques.

Operational background and modelling appeal

The Type 10 is a contemporary armoured platform noted for its advanced systems and modular design. This kit captures the tank's profile and fittings, and the set includes decals representing early deployment markings for an authentic finished model.

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic with photo-etched parts
  • Assembly Type: Requires assembly and painting
  • Decal Options: Includes special marking decals
Photo-etched parts are thin and delicate; handle them with fine tweezers and use cyanoacrylate or a small amount of CA to secure them. Bending can be done with a flat plier or a dedicated PE folding tool.
This kit is best for modellers with some experience. The photo-etched parts and small details require steady hands and basic knowledge of trimming, gluing and finishing techniques.
Yes, the Type 10's proportions and included markings make it suitable for a modern military diorama. Consider adding figures or terrain details to match the early deployment period represented by the decals.
