Tamiya 35370 - 1/35 Marder I German Tank Destroyer Scale Kit  [35370]

Accurate 1/35 Marder I scale kit from Tamiya 35370

The Tamiya 35370 kit recreates the German Tank Destroyer Marder I with careful attention to period detail. Converted from the French Lorraine tractor, this vehicle saw limited production of roughly 170 examples and served across multiple World War II fronts, including Normandy, the Eastern Front and North Africa.

Key model details and wartime background

This 1/35 scale assembly captures the Marder I's compact chassis and distinct upper hull contours, with fine rivet and weld line work. Interior components are modelled in detail, showing the gun breech, aiming gear, stowage racks and radio fixtures to give a realistic build experience. The kit uses assembly-type tracks made from single-piece straight runs and includes ergonomic bogies for easier construction.

Presentation and collector value

Choose between three decal schemes, two representing Normandy units and one from the Eastern Front. Two crew figures are supplied, posed as sentries scanning the sky, reflecting the period context after the Normandy landings. This kit works well as a display piece and as a hands-on way to study tactical adaptations in World War II.
