Tamiya 35075 1/35 Type 97 Japanese Medium Tank - Kit Overview

The Tamiya 35075 scale model kit gives modelers an accurate plastic representation of the Japanese Type 97 medium tank used in WWII. The kit highlights key historical features and is aimed at hobbyists who value authentic detail and assembly accuracy.

Historical context and modelling interest

The Type 97 was an important element of Japan's armoured forces, notable for its asymmetrical turret and seesaw-style suspension. This kit captures those characteristics, moulded in army green plastic to mirror the original service finish.

Contents and build notes

The kit includes finely sculpted external parts, two unassembled crew figures, realistic rubber track sections and a full armament layout. Waterslide decals and clear pictorial instructions support accurate painting and final presentation. Assembly requires glue and standard modelling tools.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Features: Rubber tracks, detailed figures, waterslide decals
The kit has detailed components that raise the complexity level, but careful following of the illustrated instructions makes it achievable for motivated beginners with basic modelling tools.
Paints and glue are not included. Use hobby-grade acrylic or enamel paints matched to army green shades and a reliable plastic cement or CA glue for subassemblies.
The kit supplies realistic rubber track sections that fit well for display and light handling. For fully flexible track movement, consider aftermarket metal or link-type track upgrades.
