Tamiya 35355 1/35 Matilda MkIII/IV Red Army Scale Model Kit - Detailed WWII Tank Build  [35355]

Tamiya 1/35 Matilda MkIII/IV Red Army - Scale Tribute to a Lend-Lease Workhorse

The Tamiya 1/35 Matilda MkIII/IV Red Army kit gives hobbyists the chance to recreate a notable WWII armoured vehicle. Supplied to the Soviet Union under Lend-Lease, the Matilda carried a 2-pounder gun, could reach about 24 km/h, and had frontal armour up to 78mm, making it a resilient battlefield presence.

This kit reflects how the Matilda was modified for Red Army service, showing revised tracks and bogie skids that helped it endure the challenges of the Eastern Front. The parts and detail are aimed at builders who value historical accuracy and a satisfying modelling challenge.

Assembly and display suggestions

Building this model rewards attention to detail and patience. The kit's precise moulding suits modellers with some experience who enjoy accurate scale work. Finished, the model makes a strong display piece that highlights the rugged engineering used by Soviet armoured units.
