Tamiya 60202 - 1/35 Stegosaurus Snap-Fit Model Kit  [60202]

Tamiya 60202 Stegosaurus Model Overview

This Stegosaurus kit reproduces the iconic plated silhouette with careful attention to anatomical detail. The model reflects the double dorsal plates and tail spikes that define the species, which lived in the late Jurassic about 150 million years ago. As a herbivore it grew to roughly six meters, thriving in lush, marshy habitats.

Precision Modeling Details

Tamiya has captured the Stegosaurus proportions from the compact skull to the thagomizer tail. Parts are injection molded in light gray plastic to give a neutral base for paint and weathering. The exterior shows a rippled skin motif to help convey age and texture when painted.

Assembly Notes and Display Tips

The kit uses a snap-fit system for quick assembly, though adhesive can be used for permanent builds. A clear pictorial instruction sheet walks through construction and basic finishing. Finished, the model makes a strong display piece for natural history shelves or dioramas.
