Tamiya 35368 1/35 JGSDF Light Armored Vehicle - Overview

This kit recreates the Japan Ground Self Defense Force Light Armored Vehicle in 1/35 scale with careful engineering aimed at hobbyists who value accuracy and assembly detail. The model reflects the vehicle used widely across JGSDF units and provides a solid platform for weathering and display projects.

Fine Detail and Authentic Components

The model includes synthetic rubber tyres to mimic service tread, clear parts for head and tail lamps, and a die-cast one-piece chassis that gives the finished model a convincing weight. These elements combine to deliver a realistic miniature of the operational vehicle.

Options and Build Choices

Builders can fit the kit with an open or closed roof hatch, add the four smoke dischargers, and mount the MINIMI machine gun. The interior contains detailed seats, a dash, and small accessories like a fire extinguisher for enhanced realism.

New Details and Marking Choices

Updated components include window frames with dampers, a modern JGSDF figure, fresh antennae parts, and a rear stowage rack. The decal sheet offers three marking choices to represent different domestic JGSDF formations.

This kit is aimed at intermediate modelers. Parts fit precisely but require careful trimming, cementing and painting for best results. Experience with small detail work is helpful.
Use hobby-grade plastic cement for assembly and acrylic or enamel model paints for the body. Thinners and primer suited to plastic help achieve a smooth finish.
This is a display model intended for indoor display. Prolonged outdoor exposure can degrade decals, paint and glue joints.
