The Tamiya 32545 kit recreates the imposing KV-1B in 1/48 scale with careful attention to the tank's heavy lines and added applique plates. This assembly target appeals to collectors and builders who want a faithful small-scale representation of the wartime vehicle.
The KV-1B served as a heavyweight on the Eastern Front, fielding a 76.2mm main gun and strong frontal protection. With roughly 75mm frontal armor and added steel plates in later field modifications, the KV-1B remained a significant threat to early German armor during 1941.
The kit features a weighted diecast chassis for authentic heft and stability, while the applique armor panels are modelled with realistic bolt detail. Builders can pose the turret hatch open or closed, and the flexible track setup gives a convincing sag for display realism.
