Tamiya 35361 - 1/35 JGSDF MCV Type 16: Precision 1/35 Military Kit for Model Builders

The Tamiya 35361 1/35 JGSDF MCV Type 16 delivers an accurate scale interpretation of the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force maneuver combat vehicle. This kit reproduces the Type 16 profile with a detailed 105mm main gun and rubber tires that capture the vehicle's tread pattern for authentic presentation.

Scale Accuracy and Moving Parts

Built from careful reference, the 8-wheeled layout is faithfully represented and the steerable front four wheels are modelled to move together, recreating the real vehicle's handling. The kit provides four different marking schemes so builders can depict varied unit markings and operational looks.

Display and Build Value

Beyond a technical build, the Tamiya 35361 makes a compelling display model. Two included figures in contemporary JGSDF uniform expand diorama options and help set scale at a glance, appealing to both display hobbyists and detail-focused collectors.

The kit is aimed at intermediate to experienced modellers. Parts fit is good, but small details and painting will require patience and basic modelling tools.
Use matt military paints in olive drab and dark green for the base. Weathering with washes and drybrushing brings out panel lines and tyre texture.
Yes, the front four wheels are modelled to steer together and can be posed to show turning. They are not driven but they do allow realistic display positioning.
