Tamiya 32578 1/48 German Motorcycle with Sidecar - Scale Modelling Detail

Model builders and history fans will appreciate the accurate miniaturisation in this Tamiya 32578 1/48 motorcycle and sidecar kit. It recreates the compact, functional machines used in WWII with attention to surface detail and authentic proportions.

Why this model appeals to diorama makers

Motorcycles with sidecars were a common sight in wartime logistics, valued for their mobility across rough routes. The kit captures that practical character, making it a reliable choice when you want a believable support vehicle in a small-scale battlefield scene.

Assembly experience and presentation

This kit gives a hands-on build with fine parts that reward careful assembly. The completed model measures about 50mm long and slots neatly into 1/48 scale layouts, providing a compact focal point for display or as part of a larger vignette.
